S100 proteins

S100 proteins constitute a family of calcium-binding proteins. In brain tissue, S100 proteins are represented mainly by the S100BB homodimer and S100A1B heterodimer. Due to their abundance in the astrocytes of the brain, S100 proteins are important neuro biomarkers, such as for glial injury and blood-brain barrier damage. They have shown elevated results over the first few days after severe traumatic brain injury (TBI).

At HyTest, we offer a selection of monoclonal antibodies and native S100 antigens that can be used in S100 assay development for brain injuries.
