Endogenous control of immunity against infection: tenascin-C regulates TLR4-mediated inflammation via microRNA-155.
Endogenous molecules generated upon pathogen invasion or tissue damage serve as danger signals that activate host defense; however, their precise immunological role remains unclear. Tenascin-C is an extracellular matrix glycoprotein that is specifically induced upon injury and infection. Here, we sh...
