The S-100 protein is a low molecular weight protein which has been isolated mainly in mammalian brain cells. Glial fibrillary acidic protein is one of the five types of intermediate filaments described to date. We used immunohistochemical methods to study the expression in this patterns of expression of these two proteins in pleomorphic adenoma of the salivary glands, in an attempt to explain their tumor and to elucidate the origin of this complex neoplasm of the salivary glands.

D008949	Adenoma, Pleomorphic	A benign, slow-growing tumor, most commonly of the salivary gland, occurring as a small, painless, firm nodule, usually of the parotid gland, but also found in any major or accessory salivary gland anywhere in the oral cavity. It is most often seen in women in the fifth decade. Histologically, the tumor presents a variety of cells: cuboidal, columnar, and squamous cells, showing all forms of epithelial growth.

D009418	S100 Proteins	A family of highly acidic calcium-binding proteins found in large concentration in the brain and believed to be glial in origin. They are also found in other organs in the body. They have in common the EF-hand motif (EF HAND MOTIFS) found on a number of calcium binding proteins. The name of this family derives from the property of being soluble in a 100% saturated ammonium sulfate solution.
