Background:
S100A6 also known as calcyclin, a small acidic protein of which molecular weighs is about 10.5 kDa, belongs to the S100 calcium-binding protein family (1). These family members share a common S100 calcium-binding motif and are involved in several regulatory functions that include protein phosphorylation, some enzyme activities, the dynamics of cytoskeletal components, transcription factors, and Ca2+ homeostasis, and also cell proliferation and differentiation (2, 3). S100A6 is most abundantly expressed in fibroblasts and epithelial cells (4) and has also been found in some neurons, astrocytes, smooth muscle cells, cardiac myocytes, platelets and lymphocytes. S100A6 is also expressed by osteoblasts and up-regulated markedly during osteoblast differentiation; however, its roles in bone physiology are unknown (5). In addition, S100A6 is overexpressed in several tumor cells with high metastatic activity, e.g. melanoma (6). Therefore S100A6 may also be involved in tumorigenesis. The general function of S100A6 remains unclear, but evidence suggests that it is involved in cell cycle regulation (7, 8) and exocytosis (9, 10), and in the regulation of heat shock proteins and cytoskeletal dynamics. Interestingly overexpression of S100A6 has also been observed in patients suffering from Alzheimer disease or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (11, 12).
