Staining summary

Strong nuclear and cytoplasmic positivity was observed in most gliomas and melanomas. Moderate positivity was displayed in a few cases of thyroid, ovarian and breast cancers. Tumor cells in remaining cancer tissues were negative. Immune cells in tumor stroma were strongly stained.

GENE INFORMATION

Gene name

S100B (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

S100beta

Description

S100 calcium binding protein B (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the S100 family of proteins containing 2 EF-hand calcium-binding motifs. S100 proteins are localized in the cytoplasm and/or nucleus of a wide range of cells, and involved in the regulation of a number of cellular processes such as cell cycle progression and differentiation. S100 genes include at least 13 members which are located as a cluster on chromosome 1q21; however, this gene is located at 21q22.3. This protein may function in Neurite extension, proliferation of melanoma cells, stimulation of Ca2+ fluxes, inhibition of PKC-mediated phosphorylation, astrocytosis and axonal proliferation, and inhibition of microtubule assembly. Chromosomal rearrangements and altered expression of this gene have been implicated in several neurological, neoplastic, and other types of diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, Down's syndrome, epilepsy, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, melanoma, and type I diabetes.
