Other highly upregulated proteins in DM included S100 calcium binding protein A12 (S100A12), CXCL9, and nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT), while highly upregulated proteins in JDM included matrix metallopeptidase 3 (MMP3), growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15), and von Willebrand factor (vWF). This evidence concerns the gene S100A12 and dermatomyositis.
