Der p 1과 Der p 2는 알레르기 질환과 관련된 집먼지 진드기의 핵심적인 알러젠이다. 본 연구에서는 Der p 1과 Der p 2가 단구에서 S100A8과 S10A9을 분비시키는지를 확인하였고, 분비된 S100A8과 S10A9이 호중구의 세포고사 조절기전에 작용하는지를 연구하였다. Der p 1과 Der p 2는 정상인의 단구에서 S100A8과 S10A9을 유의하게 증가시켰고, S100A8과 S10A9은 정상인과 알레르기 질환 호중구의 자발적 세포고사를 억제 시켰다. 호중구의 Lyn, Akt, ERK는 S100A8과 S10A9을 시간별로 처리하였을 때 활성화하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 단구와 호중구에서 Der p 1과 Der p 2의 역할을 규명하였고, 나아가 관련된 알레르기 병인기전을 이해하는데 유용할 것이다.

Background: S100A10, of the S100 protein family, is reported to be involved in cancer cell invasion and metastasis. The aims of the present study were to immunohistochemically examine S100A10 expression in surgically resected lung adenocarcinomas, and evaluate any relationships with clinicopathological parameters and prognosis of patients. Materials and Methods: S100A10 expression was immunohistochemically studied in 202 consecutive resected lung adenocarcinomas, and its associations with clinicopathological parameters were evaluated. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate the effect of S100A10 expression on survival. Results: S100A10 expression was detected in 65 of the 202 (32.2%) lung adenocarcinomas, being significantly correlated with poorer differentiation (P =0.015), a higher pathological TNM stage (stages II and III) (P=0.004), more frequent and severe intratumoral vascular invasion (P=0.001), and a poorer prognosis (P=0.030). However, S100A10 expression was not an independent predictor of survival after controlling for clinicopathological factors. Conclusions: The present study reveals that S100A10 is expressed in a subset of lung adenocarcinomas, and this is related to some clinicopathological parameters, although further studies are required to confirm the correlation between S100A10 expression and prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma patients.

The S100 family proteins act as inducers of cancer cell apoptosis and inflammatory mediators. This study examined the pro-apoptotic mechanism caused by S100A8 and S100A9 in human FIP1L1-PDGFRα-positive eosinophilic leukemia cells. S100A8 and S100A9 elicited the death of EoL-1 cells in a time and dose-dependent manner. The activation of PDGFRα was suppressed by a decrease in PDGFRα after treatment with S100A8 and S100A9. Cycloheximide, a translation inhibitor, suppressed PDGFRα expression from 1 h to 5 h, and a co-treatment with S100A8 and S100A9 boosted the decrease in expression. The phosphorylation and expression of STAT5 decreased after treatment with S100A8 and S100A9 in EoL-1 and imatinib-resistant (EoL-1-IR) cells. S100A8 and S100A9 induced the chemotaxis of EoL-1 cells but did not affect the chemoattraction of EoL-1-IR. These findings indicate the cell death mechanism due to S100 family proteins and the development of leukemia therapy using S100A8 and S100A9.

House dust mite (HDM) as a major allergen and damage-associated molecular pattern (DAMP) such as S100A8 and S100A9 trigger the pathogenesis and severity of allergic disease such as asthma. Regulation of neutrophil apoptosis is an important immune response and its dysregulation is involved in pathogenesis of allergic diseases. In this study, we examined the effects of HDM, S100A8 and S100A9 on spontaneous apoptosis of normal neutrophils. We considered the importance of the difference between in vitro and in vivo results and developed a new in vitro system consisting of a combination of immune cells and T helper (Th) cytokines. Extract of Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (DP), S100A8, and S100A9 inhibited neutrophil apoptosis in culture of neutrophils alone without other leukocytes. DP and S100A8 more strongly suppressed neutrophil apoptosis in combinations of neutrophils, eosinophils, lymphocytes or monocytes than in a culture of neutrophils alone. Anti-apoptotic effect of S100A9 in the mixture of immune cells was similar to that in neutrophils. DP, S100A8, and S100A9 blocked neutrophil apoptosis, regardless of pretreatment with a T helper (Th) 1 cytokine (IFN-$\gamma$), Th2 cytokines (IL-4 and IL-10), a Th9 cytokine (IL-9), a Th17 cytokine (IL-17), a Treg-producing cytokine (TGF-$\beta$). These findings may enable elucidation of allergy pathogenesis due to HDM and DAMP.

해양 분야에서는 최근 e-navigation 실현을 위한 차세대 표준에 관한 연구가 진행 중이다. IHO(국제수로기구)를 중심으로 전자해도뿐만 아니라 해양의 지리 정보 및 관련 데이터의 교환, 공유, 활용할 수 있도록 S-100기반 다양한 표준에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 다양한 데이터를 통합하여 안전운항을 위한 새로운 정보를 제공하기 위해서는 프로파일링을 통해 S-101, S-102, S-10x 등 다양한 표준 프로파일이 만들어지면 각 표준에서 정의하는 데이터 모델의 요소를 일관성 있고 명확하게 해석하는 것이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 S-10x 표준의 기반이 되는 S-100 표준을 일관된 의미 해석과 처리를 할 수 있도록 S-100 표준의 메타데이터를 온톨로지로 변환하는 방안을 제시한다.

S100A8 and S100A9 are associated with myeloid cell differentiation, chemotactic activities, adhesion of neutrophils, and apoptosis. In this study, we investigated the contribution of S100A8 and S100A9 to differentiation of the human eosinophilic leukemia cell line, EoL-1. S100A8 and S100A9 increased the number of vacuole per one cell and the protein expression of EPO and MBP. Rottlerin, an inhibitor of protein kinase C delta ($PKC{\delta}$), inhibited the EoL-1 cell differentiation induced by S100A8 and S100A9. These results suggest that S100A8 and S100A9 may regulate the differentiation of eosinophilic progenitors. Moreover, these findings may shed light on elucidation of eosinophil differentiation due to S100 proteins.

수로데이터 기술표준이 S-57에서 S-100으로 변경됨에 따라 국가 해사안전정보 제공기관은 차세대 전자해도 뿐만 아니라 다양한 해사안전정보를 제공할 수 있는 표준화 체계가 마련되었다. S-57 전자해도를 표시하고 항해지원 기능을 제공하는 ECDIS는 S-100 표준의 출현으로 신규 표준에 대한 고려가 요구되며, 이를 통해 S-10X 데이터 및 e-Nav 정보가 운용 가능할 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구에서는 S-100 기반 항해지원시스템 설계를 위해 S-100 표준기술의 운용 메카니즘을 분석하고 이를 기반으로 설계 세부 결과를 수로데이터 로딩 모듈, SENC 표현 모듈, 항해지원 모듈로 구분하여 정리 하였다. 본 시스템의 입력 자료로 예상되는 S-10X 데이터는 차세대 전자해도, 해저지형 그리드 데이터, 전자항해서지 등을 반영 하였다.

S100A8 and S100A9 are involved in pathogenesis of cancer by induction or inhibition of cancer as well as inflammation. In this study, we investigated the association of S100A8 and S100A9 with pathogenesis of leukemia using human monocytic leukemia cells, THP-1. The expression of TLR4, which is a known receptor of S100A8 and S100A9, was examined by using flow cytometry and Western blotting. THP-1 cells have high surface and cytosol expression of TLR4. S100A8 and S100A9 suppressed the cell survival, and this suppression was found to be associated with apoptosis because they increased the number of apoptotic cells in a dose- and a time-dependent manners. However, S100A8 and S100A9 had no effect on the survival and apoptosis of monocytes isolated from the peripheral blood. We next examined the apoptotic effect of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and monophosphoryl lipid A (MPLA), which are other ligands of TLR4, in THP-1 cells. Lipopolysaccharide had no effect on cell survival, but MPLA is effective on the cell apoptosis. These results suggest that S100A8 and S100A9 may regulate leukemia cell survival via TLR4, which is an essential receptor in the pro-apoptotic mechanism induced by S100A8 and S100A9. These findings may shed light on development of a possible therapeutic drug for leukemia treatment.

Atopic dermatitis (AD ) is an inflammatory skin disorder caused by immunological dysregulation and genetic factors. Whether the expression levels of cytokine and skin barrier protein were altered by S100 calcium binding protein A8 (S100A8) and S100A9 in human keratinocytic HaCaT cells was examined in the present study. Alterations of cytokine expression were examined by ELI SA following treatment with S100A8/9 and various signal protein-specific inhibitors. Activation of the mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway and nuclear factor (NF)-κB was evaluated by using western blotting and an NF-κB activity test, respectively. The expression levels of interleukin (IL )-6, IL- 8 and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 increased following treatment with S100A8 and S100A9, and the increase was significantly blocked by specific signaling pathway inhibitors, including toll-like receptor 4 inhibitor (TLR 4i), rottlerin, PD98059, SB203580 and BAY-11-7085. Extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ER K) and p38 MAPK pathways were activated in a time-dependent manner following treatment with S100A8 and S100A9. Phosphorylation of ER K and p38 MAPK were blocked by TLR 4i and rottlerin. S100A8 and S100A9 induced translocation of NF-κB in a time-dependent manner, and the activation of NF-κB was inhibited by TLR 4i, rottlerin, PD98059 and SB203580. In addition, S100A8 and S100A9 decreased the expression of skin barrier proteins, filaggrin and loricrin. These results may help to elucidate the pathogenic mechanisms of AD and develop clinical strategies for controlling AD.
