Strong binding of the acute phase protein serum amyloid-A (SAA) to human neutrophils was found using flow cytometry. This binding was shown to be functionally relevant with respect to the oxidative burst reaction assayed on N-formyl peptide-stimulated neutrophils by the intracellular oxidation of non-fluorescent dihydrorhodamine to fluorescent rhodamine 123. The results show reduction of the oxidative burst response by isolated SAA (and recombinant SAA2). Inhibition was also demonstrated by acute phase as compared to normal human serum. This inhibitory effect was abolished by the purified monoclonal anti-amyloid A antibody mc29, strongly suggesting that SAA counteracts neutrophil responses to cytokines or bacterial products. This newly recognized function of SAA may help to prevent oxidative tissue destruction.
