S 100 protein

Manufactured by Agilent Technologies
Sourced in Denmark, United States, Germany

The S-100 protein is a calcium-binding protein that is commonly used as a biomarker in various laboratory applications. It is a small, acidic protein that is primarily found in the cytoplasm of glial cells and certain neuronal cells in the central nervous system. The S-100 protein plays a role in the regulation of a variety of intracellular and extracellular activities, including cell growth, differentiation, and motility.

Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue blocks were provided by our Department of Pathology. Three pathologists examined all resected specimens to confirm the histopathological features. The stage grouping of the tumors was classified according to the TNM classification of malignant tumors, seventh edition [25 ]. The mode of invasion was examined at the host/tumor interface as previously defined by Yamamoto et al. [26 (link)]. Each patient was assigned an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS) score at the time of diagnosis [27 (link)]. Non-carcinomatous tissue and recurrent OSCC tissue were obtained from non-tumor portions of the surgically resected specimens and metastatic regional lymph nodes or locally recurrent oral mucosa corresponding to each primary site, respectively. These tissues were stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E), Elastica van Gieson (EVG), or immunohistochemistry preparations of sequential sections. EVG, immunohistochemical Podoplanin (D2-40; Nichirei Bioscience Co., Tokyo, Japan; diluted 1:1), and S-100 protein (Dako, Glostrup, Denmark; diluted 1:900) staining very clearly revealed vascular invasion (v), lymphatic vessel invasion (ly), and perineural involvement (ne), respectively, as previously described [28 (link)].

Immunostaining was performed on undifferentiated stem cells (uADSCs) at passage 2 cultured on LabTek™ (Nunc) slides. After blocking with normal serum, the primary antibodies were applied for 2 h at room temperature CD73 (1:100; BD Biosciences), CD90 (1:1000; Millipore), CD105 (1:20; Abcam Ltd) and CD34 (1:50; Santa Cruz Biotechnology). After rinsing in phosphate-buffered saline, either secondary goat anti-mouse or donkey anti-goat Alexa Fluor 488 conjugated antibodies (1:300; ThermoFisher) were applied for 1 h at room temperature in the dark. The slides were then cover-slipped with ProLong mounting media containing 4–6-diamido-2-phenylindole (DAPI; ThermoFisher). The specificity of staining was tested by omission of the primary antibodies. To confirm multi-potency the uADSCs were treated with either adipogenic or osteogenic supplements according to the protocol described by the manufacturer (Rat Mesenchymal Stem Cell Functional Identification Kit, R & D Systems). Stem cells which were induced to a Schwann cell-like phenotype were immunostained with Sox-10 (1:200; R&D Systems), S100 protein (1:2000; Dako) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP 1:1000; Dako) antibodies. For comparison, uADSCs and primary Schwann cells were stained under identical conditions.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
