GeneRIFs: Gene References Into Functions

What's a GeneRIF?

WFDC1/ps20 modulates core host response mechanisms, in part, via regulation of osteopontin and MMP-9 activity. Release from WFDC1 regulation is likely a key component of inflammatory and repair response mechanisms.
Title: WFDC1 is a key modulator of inflammatory and wound repair responses.
These data suggest roles for ps20 in regulating expression of neutrophil-specific chemotactic factors, thereby potentially modulating neutrophil migration, and in modulating neutrophil susceptibility to murine hepatitis virus -1 infection.
Title: WFDC1/ps20: a host factor that influences the neutrophil response to murine hepatitis virus (MHV) 1 infection.
ps20 may be a TGF-beta1-induced regulator of angiogenesis that functions by either promoting endothelial cell migration or by contributing to pericyte stabilization of newly formed vascular structures.
Title: Promotion of angiogenesis by ps20 in the differential reactive stroma prostate cancer xenograft model.

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.
