Abstract

Objectives: The S100 calcium binding protein P (S100P) is a small member of the S100 protein family that is considered to play a role in carcinogenesis and has been shown to be overexpressed in some carcinomas. In this study, we aimed to evaluate an immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis of S100P expression in nasopharynx carcinoma (NPC), sinonasal papilloma (SNP) and upper respiratory mucosae.
