General description
TNC (Tenascin C) is a large, multicellular, extracellular matrix (ECM) glycoprotein belonging to the tenascin family. Generally, it is expressed in normal adult tissue at very low level but highly expressed in tumor cells. Elevated expression level has been reported within the outflow side of the aortic valve leaflets.
Immunogen
Tenascin precursor recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)
Application
All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.
The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions
TNC (Tenascin C) is involved in the tissue remodeling and apoptosis. The pleiotropic regulator,TNC, is associated with various cellular processes such as embryogenesis, wound healing, cell proliferation, differentiation, motility, and nerve regeneration. It is also associated with various cardiac and vascular diseases. It acts as a cardiac biomarker in the detection of various cardiac diseases, including heart failure, thrombosis, atherosclerosis, and cancer. It also controls the regulation of neural differentiation signaling in bone marrow-derived human mesenchymal stem cells.
Features and Benefits
Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
- IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
- Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are currently thought to transdifferentiate into neural lineages under specific microenvironments. Studies have reported that the tenascin family members, tenascin-C (TnC) and tenascin-R (TnR), regulate differentiation and migration, in addition to neurite outgrowth and survival in
