“…Still others look for possible correlations between the level of particular S100 proteins and various pathologies (e.g., 8, 11, and 12) in order to establish them as disease markers or provide comprehensive reviews on S100 protein function in norm and pathology (e.g., 7, 14, and 15). 1) and extravillous trophoblast motility and invasion during pregnancy (10) and reveal two independent mechanisms of S100P action. While the intracellular protein enhances cell motility through interaction with myosin IIA and modulation of the focal adhesion pathway, the extracellular, membrane-bound protein acts by a yet unknown mechanism that does not involve changes in focal adhesion.…”
