Tenascin C also known as hexabrachion is an extracellular matrix glycoprotein with a mass of approximately 220-300 kDa depending on post-translational modifications. It shows high expression in areas undergoing tissue remodeling such as embryonic tissues wounds and tumors. It consists of repeating structural elements including epidermal growth factor-like repeats and fibronectin type III domains which facilitate its function in the context of tissue dynamics.
Biological function summary
The large hexamer known as Tenascin C plays a significant role in modulating cell adhesion migration and proliferation especially during developmental processes and injury responses. It incorporates into the existing extracellular matrix as a loose network which provides elasticity and supports cellular activities. This feature allows Tenascin C to interact with other matrix molecules and cell surface receptors to regulate tissue morphogenesis.
Pathways
Tenascin C actively participates in the Wnt and TGF-beta signaling pathways important for controlling cellular behavior in development and regeneration. It associates with integrins and glycoproteins to influence cell responses to signaling events in these pathways. By modulating these interactions Tenascin C can impact processes such as epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and angiogenesis affecting tissue architecture and function.
Tenascin C exhibits a strong connection to cancer progression and chronic inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis. Its levels rise in tumors and inflamed tissues where it interacts with other matrix components and cytokines like interleukin-6 (IL-6). These interactions contribute to a microenvironment that promotes tumor growth and persistence of inflammation highlighting its role in the pathophysiology of these diseases.
