[Immunohistochemical localization of S-100 protein in granular cell myoblastoma]. 1986

G Planas Girón, and F J Tapia

Three cases of granular cell myoblastoma have been studied in order to determine the presence and distribution of the S-100 specific protein in the neoplastic cells, using immunocytochemical staining techniques, through the modified avidin-biotin method. Positive immunostaining was observed in the three cases studied. The comparative study of various control cases histogenetically originating from neuroectoderm (melanoma) and specifically from Schwann cells, as also the presence of strongly positive staining in Schwann cells of peripheral nerve fibres situated inside and outside the tumor, support the concept of the neurogenic origin of this interesting tumor.

D009363	Neoplasm Proteins	Proteins whose abnormal expression (gain or loss) are associated with the development, growth, or progression of NEOPLASMS. Some neoplasm proteins are tumor antigens (ANTIGENS, NEOPLASM), i.e. they induce an immune reaction to their tumor. Many neoplasm proteins have been characterized and are used as tumor markers (BIOMARKERS, TUMOR) when they are detectable in cells and body fluids as monitors for the presence or growth of tumors. Abnormal expression of ONCOGENE PROTEINS is involved in neoplastic transformation, whereas the loss of expression of TUMOR SUPPRESSOR PROTEINS is involved with the loss of growth control and progression of the neoplasm.

D009369	Neoplasms	New abnormal growth of tissue. Malignant neoplasms show a greater degree of anaplasia and have the properties of invasion and metastasis, compared to benign neoplasms.

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.
