Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** S100A4 is a small, acidic protein with a molecular weight of approximately 16 kDa. It is highly expressed in various cell types, including immune cells, such as natural killer (NK) cells, T-regulatory cells, and monocytes. S100A4 is also found in epithelial cells, where it is involved in the regulation of cell growth, differentiation, and survival. The protein is characterized by its ability to bind calcium ions, which is essential for its biological activity. **Pathways and Functions:** S100A4 is involved in several cellular pathways, including: 1. **Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition (EMT):** S100A4 has been shown to promote EMT, a process by which epithelial cells undergo a phenotypic transformation into mesenchymal cells. This process is essential for various physiological and pathological processes, including wound healing, cancer progression, and immune responses. 2. **Immune Cell Regulation:** S100A4 is expressed in various immune cells, including NK cells, T-regulatory cells, and monocytes. It plays a crucial role in regulating the function of these cells, including their proliferation, differentiation, and survival. 3. **Chemoattractant Activity:** S100A4 has been shown to have chemoattractant activity, which is essential for the migration of immune cells to sites of inflammation. 4. **Rage Receptor Binding:** S100A4 binds to the receptor for activated platelets (RAGE), which is a key receptor involved in the regulation of immune responses. **Clinical Significance:** S100A4 has been implicated in various immune-related disorders, including: 1. **Cancer:** Elevated levels of S100A4 have been observed in various types of cancer, including breast, lung, and colon cancer. It is thought to play a role in the promotion of cancer progression and metastasis. 2. **Autoimmune Diseases:** S100A4 has been implicated in various autoimmune diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and multiple sclerosis. It is thought to play a role in the regulation of immune responses and the promotion of inflammation. 3. **Infectious Diseases:** S100A4 has been shown to be involved in the regulation of immune responses to infections, including tuberculosis and HIV. 4. **Cardiovascular Diseases:** Elevated levels of S100A4 have been observed in various cardiovascular diseases, including atherosclerosis and heart failure. In conclusion, S100A4 is a multifunctional protein that plays a crucial role in various cellular processes, including immune regulation, cell cycle progression, and differentiation. Its clinical significance is evident in various immune-related disorders, including cancer, autoimmune diseases, infectious diseases, and cardiovascular diseases. Further research is needed to fully understand the role of S100A4 in these disorders and to explore its potential as a biomarker or therapeutic target.
