Tenascin-C (TN-C) is a component of the extracellular matrix (ECM) that has been shown to be involved in tissue interactions during fetal development and oncogenesis. It is glycoprotein consisting of six disulphide monomer isoforms being generated by alternative splicing. A high molecular weight variant that is generated by alternative splicing of RNAs of TN-C was found predominantly in breast, prostatic and colorectal cancers. The appearance of such a large TN-C isoform has been suggested to be of significance for tumor progression. For research use only, not for use in diagnostic procedures.
