“…S100A4 itself has been implicated in disease development and progression, as it promotes the oncogenic phenotype of tumor cells. Its expression has been described for a variety of cancer entities, e.g., carcinoma of the breast [12,22,30,37,46,54], ovary [25], thyroid [23,36,57], esophagus [38], bladder [1,11], gallbladder [9], colon [53], colorectum [10,19], pancreas [2,40,45] and prostate [17], gastric cancers [14,26,55], lung [27,34], and brain cancers [44,52]. S100A4 expression has also been described in primary and metastatic melanoma [3,32,39].…”
