Phylogenetic analysis of the tenascin gene family: evidence of origin early in the chordate lineage
Background Tenascins are a family of glycoproteins found primarily in the extracellular matrix of embryos where they help to regulate cell proliferation, adhesion and migration.

Localization of tenascin in human skin wounds [PDF]
A total of 56 surgically treated human skin wounds with a wound age between 8h and 7 months were investigated. Tenascin was visualized by immunohistochemistry and appeared first in the wound area pericellularly around fibroblastic cells approximately 2 ...

Tenascins : prominent molecules in tumor stroma [PDF]
A very special connective tissue surrounds and interweaves solid tumors, the tumor stroma. Initially thought to only have a passive role, there is now more and more evidence accumulating that the tumor stroma plays an active function in the process of ...

Tenascin-C Signaling in melanoma
Tenascin-C (TNC), a multifunctional matricellular glyco-protein, is highly expressed in the majority of melanoma cell lines and has been implicated in the progression of melanoma. A growing body of evidence has implicated the role of TNC in the process of invasion and metastasis for melanoma.

Latent TGF-β Activation Is a Hallmark of the Tenascin Family
Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) isoforms are secreted as inactive complexes formed through non-covalent interactions between bioactive TGF-β entities and their N-terminal pro-domains called latency-associated peptides (LAP). Extracellular activation
