Abstract
S100 protein is the largest subtribe in calcium binding protein family. According to recent researches, abnormal expression of S100 protein is
often related to tumor, including breast tumor. Breast tumor is the most common malignant disease in female with high mortality mainly due to
metastasis. Estimating early diagnostic and prognostic markers are helpful to conduct treatment for patients with breast cancer. Accumulating
investigations focused on the role of S100 proteins in breast tumor development and metastasis. This paper summarizes the expression situation
of S100 proteins in breast tumor as well as its effects on metastasis and prognosis of breast tumor.
