Role of S100 Proteins in Colorectal Carcinogenesis [PDF]
The family of S100 proteins represents 25 relatively small (9–13 kD) calcium binding proteins. These proteins possess a broad spectrum of important intracellular and extracellular functions. Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer in men (after

A feedback loop sustaining neutrophil extracellular trap formation involves S100 proteins, histones, TLR2 and RAGE, and is restrained by albumin [PDF]
Neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) generation must be tightly controlled as this essential antimicrobial response can also cause tissue damage and contribute to various pathologies.

The use of S100 proteins testing in juvenile idiopathic arthritis and autoinflammatory diseases in a pediatric clinical setting: a retrospective analysis [PDF]
Background Serum phagocyte-derived alarmins S100A8/9 and S100A12 are considered useful for the assessment of inflammatory diseases. Our study evaluated the use of S100 proteins in a pediatric clinical setting for estimating disease activity and ...

Urine S100 proteins as potential biomarkers of lupus nephritis activity [PDF]
Background Improved, noninvasive biomarkers are needed to accurately detect lupus nephritis (LN) activity. The purpose of this study was to evaluate five S100 proteins (S100A4, S100A6, S100A8/9, and S100A12) in both serum and urine as potential ...

Multiple Evolutionary Origins of Ubiquitous Cu2+ and Zn2+ Binding in the S100 Protein Family. [PDF]
The S100 proteins are a large family of signaling proteins that play critical roles in biology and disease. Many S100 proteins bind Zn2+, Cu2+, and/or Mn2+ as part of their biological functions; however, the evolutionary origins of binding remain obscure.

Promiscuity mapping of the S100 protein family using a high-throughput holdup assay
S100 proteins are small, typically homodimeric, vertebrate-specific EF-hand proteins that establish Ca2+-dependent protein–protein interactions in the intra- and extracellular environment and are overexpressed in various pathologies.
