Forced Trefoil Factor Family Peptide 3 (TFF3) Expression Reduces Growth, Viability, and Tumorigenicity of Human Retinoblastoma Cell Lines

Abstract: Trefoil factor family (TFF) peptides have been shown to effect cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion of normal cells and various cancer cell lines. In the literature TFF peptides are controversially discussed as tumor suppressors and potential tumor progression factors. In the study presented, we investigated the effect of TFF3 overexpression on growth, viability, migration and tumorigenicity of the human retinoblastoma cell lines Y-79, WERI-Rb1, RBL-13 and RBL-15. As revealed by WST-1 and TUNE… Show more

“…For the generation of a TFF1 expression vector under the control of the ubiquitin C promoter (pCS2+_UBQ_TFF1), the human TFF1 cDNA sequence was excised by digestion with SalII /BamHI and ligated into the pCS2+_UBQ vector (for details see Ref. ), digested with the same restriction enzymes.…”

“…For transient TFF1 overexpression, Y79 RB cells were transfected as previously described by our group in Ref. . Instead of the pCS2+_UBQ_ TFF3 the pCS2+_UBQ_ TFF1 vector was used for transfection.…”

“…The interaction between TFF3 and mucins has also been reported to protect intestinal epithelia from injuries, maintaining mucosal barrier function (26). Furthermore, mitogenic effects of TFF3 have been identified in vitro in primary cell culture, and TFF3 has been demonstrated to inhibit apoptosis, induce cellular invasion, act as an inflammatory modulator and exhibit pro-angiogenic activity (27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32). A protective or healing effect of TFF3 has also been reported in a series of experiments, such as cells in vitro, mice, rats and human (12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17).…”
