Western blot - Anti-Tenascin C antibody [EB2] (AB88280)

False colour image of Western blot : Anti-Tenascin C antibody [EB2] staining at 1/1000 dilution, shown in green; Rabbit anti-ACTN4 [EPR2533(2)] (ab108198) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in red. In Western blot, ab88280 was shown to bind specifically to Tenascin C. A band was observed at 200/270 kDa in treated wild-type U-2 OS cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in TNC knockout cell line ab262488 (knockout cell lysate ab263924). To generate this image, wild-type and TNC knockout U-2 OS cell lysates were analysed. First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 2 % BSA in TBS-0.1 % Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times before development with Optiblot (ECL reagent ab133456) and imaged with 16 minutes exposure time. Secondary antibodies used were HRP conjugated Goat anti-Mouse (H+L) and Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed (ab216777) at 1/20000 dilution.

Supplementary information

This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.

Tenascin C also known as hexabrachion is an extracellular matrix glycoprotein with a mass of approximately 220-300 kDa depending on post-translational modifications. It shows high expression in areas undergoing tissue remodeling such as embryonic tissues wounds and tumors. It consists of repeating structural elements including epidermal growth factor-like repeats and fibronectin type III domains which facilitate its function in the context of tissue dynamics.
Biological function summary

The large hexamer known as Tenascin C plays a significant role in modulating cell adhesion migration and proliferation especially during developmental processes and injury responses. It incorporates into the existing extracellular matrix as a loose network which provides elasticity and supports cellular activities. This feature allows Tenascin C to interact with other matrix molecules and cell surface receptors to regulate tissue morphogenesis.

Pathways

Tenascin C actively participates in the Wnt and TGF-beta signaling pathways important for controlling cellular behavior in development and regeneration. It associates with integrins and glycoproteins to influence cell responses to signaling events in these pathways. By modulating these interactions Tenascin C can impact processes such as epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and angiogenesis affecting tissue architecture and function.

Tenascin C exhibits a strong connection to cancer progression and chronic inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis. Its levels rise in tumors and inflamed tissues where it interacts with other matrix components and cytokines like interleukin-6 (IL-6). These interactions contribute to a microenvironment that promotes tumor growth and persistence of inflammation highlighting its role in the pathophysiology of these diseases.

Target data

Extracellular matrix protein implicated in guidance of migrating neurons as well as axons during development, synaptic plasticity as well as neuronal regeneration. Promotes neurite outgrowth from cortical neurons grown on a monolayer of astrocytes. Ligand for integrins alpha-8/beta-1, alpha-9/beta-1, alpha-V/beta-3 and alpha-V/beta-6. In tumors, stimulates angiogenesis by elongation, migration and sprouting of endothelial cells (PubMed : 19884327).
