S100A9/S100A8: Myeloid representatives of the S100 protein family as prominent players in innate immunity

Abstract: Neutrophils are rapidly recruited to sites of inflammation and are thereby at the forefront of the organism's defense against numerous attacks. As unspecific phagocytes, they belong to the so-called innate immunity. Two S100 proteins, namely S100A9 (MRP14) and S100A8 (MRP8), constitute roughly 40% of the cytosolic protein in these cells, implying by their pure abundance an important role in the effector functions of neutrophils. However, despite intense research in the past 15 years, the puzzle that may embed … Show more

“…The early involvement of iPLA 2 , a calcium-insensitive phospholipase A 2 that can release DHA (33), in AA release was recently demonstrated in acute pleural inflammation (34). In this respect, we found via proteomic analysis that S100A9, a known AA-binding protein (35), was present in the exudate within 2 h after initiation of inflammation and reached maximal at the onset of R i , paralleling the PMN infiltration time course (Figs. 2A and 3B).…”

“…2A and 3B). S100A9 is a cytosolic PMN protein that can be secreted and exhibits potent actions on inflammatory cell recruitment (35). In addition, ␣ 1 - macroglobulin, similar to ␣ 2 -macroglobulin, binds several proteinases including tissue-plasminogen activator and promotes their clearance (36).…”

“…The S100 protein family, especially S100A8 (29) and S100A9 (27), are cytoplasmic EF-hand Ca 2ϩ -binding proteins (36), which are some of the ligands that have been linked to human inflammatory and neoplastic diseases (37). Thus, we sought to determine the levels of expression of S100 proteins and RAGE in the lungs of UG-KO mice.…”

“…S100A8 and S100A9 (S100A8/A9), a family of low-molecular-weight intracellular EF-hand motif calcium-binding proteins, are abundantly expressed in cells of the myeloid lineage, including monocytes and neutrophils and early-differentiation states of macrophages. These proteins function predominantly as S100A8/A9 hetero-dimers and are highly chemotactic for leukocytes recruitment, adhesion and migration, thereby amplifying the local proinflammatory microenvironment (Nacken et al, 2003;Rychman et al, 2003). These proteins have been implicated in the inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, multiple sclerosis, cystic fibrosis and psoriasis (Foell et al, 2007;Roth et al, 2001;2003).…”
