General description

Product Source: Human glioma cell line (U251).
Purified Human Tenascin-C Protien. Tenascin is known to: 1) play an active role in development of central nervous system and mesenchymal-derived organs; 2) exist in vasculature of tumors in adults; and 3) function in cell adhesion. By SDS-PAGE analysis, the protein migrates around 280-300kD.

Application

Cell adhesion assays.

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.

Linkage

Replaces: CC066

Physical form

Purified protein supplied as a liquid in PBS containing no preservatives.

Storage and Stability

Maintain at -70ºC for up to 12 months from date of receipt. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

Metastasis is a major clinical challenge for cancer treatment. Emerging evidence suggests that aberrant epigenetic modifications contribute significantly to tumor formation and progression. However, the drivers and roles of such epigenetic changes in tumor metastasis are still poorly understood. Using

CK2, a pleiotropic Ser/Thr kinase, is an important target for cancer therapy. We tested our novel tenfibgen-based nanocapsule for delivery of the inhibitor 2-dimethylamino-4,5,6,7-tetrabromo-1H-benzimidazole (DMAT) and an siRNA directed against both CK2α and α' catalytic subunits to prostate cancer cells.
