The role of s100a12 as a systemic marker of inflammation

Abstract

S100A12 is a member of the S100 family of calcium-binding proteins with important extracellular activities. In recent years, investigators across a number of fields have delineated the patterns of S100A12 expression in a variety of conditions. These data suggest that S100A12 can be used as a valuable serum inflammatory marker. © 2012 B. Meijer et al.
