There are four
members of the
tenascin gene family:
tenascin-C,
tenascin-R,
tenascin-X and
tenascin-W.
Tenascin-C is the
founding member of the gene...

Tenascin C (TN-C) is a
glycoprotein that in
humans is
encoded by the TNC gene. It is
expressed in the
extracellular matrix of
various tissues during development...

Tenascin X (TN-X), also
known as
flexillin or hexabrachion-like protein, is a 450kDa glycoprotein, a
member of the
tenascin family, that is expressed...

Tenascin-R is a
protein that in
humans is
encoded by the TNR gene.
Tenascin-R (TNR) is an
extracellular matrix protein expressed primarily in the central...

distinctive of the
desmoplastic stromal response in
several forms of cancer.
Expression of
tenascin C by

Diagnosis is
often based on
