Abstract TFF1 is a small, secreted protein in the TFF family that has a pivotal role as a motogenic factor in epithelial restitution and cell motility, and as a tumor suppressor gene in the stomach. In this study, we identified TFF1 as a novel target gene of miRNA-423-5p. miRNA-423-5p negatively reg...
