“…It is also believed to play a critical role in mineralization during osteogenesis and in myogenesis during embryonic development [19]. Furthermore, TN has been implicated as a potential biomarker in conditions ranging from cancer to Parkinson's disease [20]. The present results, detected by 2-DE and confirmed by western blotting, showed that the expression of TN in the CAA samples was significantly lower compared to healthy controls.…”

“…To date, the biological function of tetranectin has not been fully elucidated [26]. One previous study indicated that tetranectin was involved in the degradation of extracellular matrix proteins in the brain [27].…”

“…In malignancies, TN has been detected in the stroma and in tumor cells of different tumor types with varying distribution patterns [1,6,10,11,21,23,25]. In breast cancer, mainly cytoplasmic staining was found [6,21], while in other tumors, TN expression was predominantly or even completely restricted to the tumor stroma [1,10,11,23,25].…”

“…In breast cancer, mainly cytoplasmic staining was found [6,21], while in other tumors, TN expression was predominantly or even completely restricted to the tumor stroma [1,10,11,23,25]. TN is thought to enhance proteolytic processes through activation of the plasminogen-cascade, enabling tumor cells invasion and metastasizing [10,23,25].…”
