S100 calcium-binding protein A2 (S100A2) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the S100A2 gene [2] and it is located on chromosome 1q21 with other S100 proteins.

Contents

Tissue and subcellular distribution

S100A2, also known as CaN19 or S100L was first isolated from bovine lung tissue. [3] However, in human tissue it was discovered several years later, in the mammary epithelial cells. [4] Under normal circumstances it is highly expressed in human lungs, prostate, kidneys, hair follicles and salivary and mammary glands. [5] S100A2 is predominantly found in the nucleus, which is not very common in other S100 proteins. Moreover, it can also be found in the cytoplasm, and its distribution is rather diffuse. Its occurrence in cytoplasm is most likely dependent on calcium levels in the cell. [6] [7] [8] In the extracellular environment, it can be found as a homodimer in vivo and in vitro , but it also exists in monomeric, polymeric and multimeric forms. In multimeric form, it functions as a RAGE receptor ligand. [9]

Function

S100A2 is important in cytoskeleton organization. [10] Also, S100A2 is induced by p53, which it interacts and participates in the transcription of p21. [8] [11] It also plays a role in differentiation, regeneration of tissues and healing [12] [13] and it was shown it attract eosinophils by chemotaxis. [14]

Clinical significance

Its expression is reduced in many types of cancer, thereby distinguishing the cancerous expression profile of the other proteins of the S100 group. [15] [16] [17] It has been reported that S100A2 is downregulated in lung, kidney, prostate cancer and melanoma. [15] Chromosomal rearrangements and altered expression of this gene have also been implicated in breast cancer. [18] [17] [7] In addition, its decline is associated with poor prognosis, disease progression, increased occurrence of metastasis and increased patient mortality. [19] Although in most cancers it has been found in reduced levels, there are studies that show that in some cases it is overproduced. [20] [21]
