The acute phase SAA and SAP profiles have been compared for localized and endotoxin induced inflammation in LPS responder and nonresponder strains of mice. The SAP profile can reflect a delay with respect to the start of the increase. Its maximum is on the order of ten times the nonacute phase concentration and elevated concentrations are sustained 24 to 48 hours after SAA concentration is rapidly decreasing to normal. The role of Interleukin 1, known to have an essential role in SAA production, was investigated for SAP production. Purified mouse IL 1 and rabbit IL 1 produced a minimal elevation of SAP concentration above normal values, especially when compared with their effects on SAA concentration. BCG infection was shown to synergistically augment SAA induction by LPS and was shown to enhance IL 1 production by macrophages in response to LPS. Unlike SAA synthesis, BCG-preinfection fails to synergistically augment the LPS-induced SAP response. BCG infection alone produced highly elevated and sustained increases in SAP concentration, whereas, the effect on SAA concentration was minimal. Macrophages appear to play an important role in SAP acute phase elevation, but the mechanism in different from that of SAA elevation.
