Used in cancer research and diagnostics due to its specific binding to tenascin C, a protein overexpressed in tumor stroma of various cancers such as glioblastoma, melanoma, and breast cancer. Enables targeted imaging of solid tumors when labeled with radioisotopes. Investigated for use in immunoconjugates to deliver therapeutic agents directly to tumor sites while sparing healthy tissue. Supports immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry applications for detecting tenascin C expression in tissue samples.
