What does this test S-100 Protein Test Immunohistochemistry identify?

The S-100 Protein Test Immunohistochemistry identifies the presence of S-100 protein in tissue samples. S-100 protein is a group of calcium-binding proteins that are found in cells of the nervous system, as well as in other tissues such as muscle and adipose tissue. In the context of immunohistochemistry, the test helps to identify cells that express S-100 protein, which can be useful in diagnosing conditions such as melanoma, schwannoma, and other types of tumors.

Why is this test S-100 Protein Test Immunohistochemistry taken?

The S-100 Protein Test Immunohistochemistry is taken to diagnose and monitor certain types of tumors, especially those that originate in the nervous system. S-100 protein is a marker that is commonly expressed in cells of neuroectodermal origin, such as Schwann cells, melanocytes, and dendritic cells.

By performing this test, healthcare providers can determine the presence of S-100 protein in tissue samples, which can help in the diagnosis of tumors such as melanoma, schwannoma, and astrocytoma. Additionally, monitoring S-100 protein levels can be useful in tracking the progression of these tumors and assessing the effectiveness of treatment.
