Research findings, 'Interaction between S100A8/A9 and annexin A6 is involved in the calcium-induced cell surface exposition of S100A8/A9,' are discussed in a new report. According to recent research from Muenster, Germany, "The calcium binding S100A8/A9 complex (MRP8/14; calgranulin) is considered as an important proinflammatory mediator in acute and chronic inflammation and has recently gained attention as a molecular marker up-regulated in various human cancers.
