Anti-Tenascin antibody produced in chicken

Immunogen Sequence: GI # 4504549, sequence 18-175

Recombinant tenascin C (hexabrachion)

Anti-Tenascin antibody produced in chicken is suitable for western blotting analysis at a dilution of 1:500, for tissue or cell staining at a dilution of 1:200. It is also used for immunohistology.

Tenascin-C (TNC) is an extracellular matrix protein that is expressed at low levels in normal adult tissue but is highly expressed around many tumors including ovarian tumors. High levels are observed in many diseases like heart failure, thrombosis, atherosclerosis and cancer. It plays an indispensable role in tumor development. Expression of this gene is induced by growth factors as well as mechanical strain in fibroblast. It is up-regulated within glioma tissues and cultured glioma cell lines. TNC possesses a multi-modular structure with a variety of functional properties.
