What's a GeneRIF?

Latexin expression correlated with mineralization of articular cartilage during progression of post-traumatic osteoarthritis in a rat model.
Title: Latexin expression correlated with mineralization of articular cartilage during progression of post-traumatic osteoarthritis in a rat model.
Data show that latexin protein expression was reduced after SNI, and the decrease of latexin was associated with an increase of the activity of carboxypeptidase A.
Title: Nerve injury evoked loss of latexin expression in spinal cord neurons contributes to the development of neuropathic pain.

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.
