Proinflammatory Activities of S100: Proteins S100A8, S100A9, and S100A8/A9 Induce Neutrophil Chemotaxis and Adhesion

TL;DR: S100A8, S100A9, and S 100A8/A9 are potent stimulators of neutrophils and strongly suggest that these proteins are involved in neutrophil migration to inflammatory sites.
Journal ArticleDOI

S100A8 and S100A9 activate MAP kinase and NF-κB signaling pathways and trigger translocation of RAGE in human prostate cancer cells

TL;DR: The findings show that S 100A8 and S100A9 are linked to the activation of important features of prostate cancer cells and a possible function as extracellular ligands.
Journal ArticleDOI

The S100 Family Heterodimer, MRP-8/14, Binds with High Affinity to Heparin and Heparan Sulfate Glycosaminoglycans on Endothelial Cells

TL;DR: It is concluded that the MRp-8/14 complex binds to endothelial cells via the MRP-14 subunit interacting chiefly with heparan sulfate proteoglycans, and this binding activity may explain the immobilization of theMRP-8-14 complex on endothelium that is observed in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Blockade of S100A8 and S100A9 suppresses neutrophil migration in response to lipopolysaccharide.

TL;DR: The results suggest that S 100A8 and S100A9 play a role in the inflammatory response to LPS by inducing the release of neutrophils from the bone marrow and directing their migration to the inflammatory site.
