Distinct populations of cultured dopaminergic neurons express trefoil factor 1, and their numbers can be increased by factors known to influence survival and differentiation of dopaminergic cells.

Substantial amounts of TFF1 were detected only in the cytoplasm of epithelial cells in the submandibular glands granular convoluted tubules (GCT), while TFF2 and TFF3 were widely distributed in the cytoplasm of epithelial cells of intercalated ducts

Data indicate that trefoil factor 1 (TFF1) expression is restricted to neurons.

Tff1 expression was up-regulated in migratory cells. No unequivocal signs of the epithelial-mesenchymal transition were detectable in migratory cells. Transfection of RGM-1 cells with Tff1-siRNAi duplexes negatively influenced migration of these cells.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
