S100 proteins in health and disease

Diagnostic Value of Calretinin and S100 Immunohistochemistry in Hirschsprung's Disease

Background Rectal biopsy and its histopathological study with hematoxylin and eosin (HE) is the gold standard for Hirschsprung's disease (HD) diagnosis. However, there are some limitations in the diagnosis of ganglion cells in HE approach. Recently, it was reported that the utility of Calretinin is a reliable ancillary immunohistochemistry (IHC) test for HD diagn...

Role of S100 Proteins in Colorectal Carcinogenesis

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 lung and prostate cancer) and the second most frequent cancer in women (after breast cancer) worldwide. S100 proteins are involved in the colo...

S100 Calcium Binding Proteins and Ion Channels

S100 Ca(2+)-binding proteins have been associated with a multitude of intracellular Ca(2+)-dependent functions including regulation of the cell cycle, cell differentiation, cell motility and apoptosis, modulation of membrane-cytoskeletal interactions, transduction of intracellular Ca(2+) signals, and in mediating learning and memory. S100 proteins are fine tuned to read the intracellular free C...
