Similarly, in birds, a polymorphism at the tenascin locus (which lies a few megabases proximal to Tlr4 in mice) predicts susceptibility to Gram-negative infection [ 30], suggesting that it may lie in linkage disequilibrium with a particular form of the avian Tlr4 gene.
A possible physiologic consequence of IL-1β-induced tenascin expression is that it may promote chondrocyte migration towards the sites of lesions in OA [ 47].
