Function
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 when provided to neurons in culture. May play a role in supporting the growth of epithelial tumors. Ligand for integrins ITGA8:ITGB1, ITGA9:ITGB1, ITGAV:ITGB3 and ITGAV:ITGB6. In tumors, stimulates angiogenesis by elongation, migration and sprouting of endothelial cells (By similarity).

Notes
While the standard is the same as the one provided in the corresponding SimpleStep ELISA Kit, it cannot be treated as the consumable provided with our SimpleStep ELISA Kit due to differences in its concentration calibration.
Abcam guarantee that this protein standard is suitable for use in a sandwich ELISA. Individual results may vary due to differences in technique, laboratory equipment, buffers, and other experimental factors. The detection range provided for this protein standard is based on initial sandwich ELISA validation data.
The protein concentration is the concentration after validation on our sandwich ELISA platform. This Standard protein is guaranteed to work with our Capture and Detector antibodies in sELISA. Please contact our Scientific Support team to know which antibody pair is suitable for this protein.

- Activity summary
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.
- Associated diseases and disorders
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.
