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 s...
