Expression of the trefoil protein TFF3 in human breast cancers
The purpose of this study is to investigate expression of the trefoil factor family protein, TFF3 in a large series of human breast cancers. Trefoil factors are small secreted proteins that are expressed in mucus secreting epithelia. They are involved in mucosal protection in part by stimulation of cell motility. It has been proposed that the motogenic actions of trefoil ... Read more
