Trefoil factor 3 as an endocrine neuroprotective factor from the liver in experimental cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury.

Cerebral ischemia, while causing neuronal injury, can activate innate neuroprotective mechanisms, minimizing neuronal death. In this report, we demonstrate that experimental cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury in the mouse causes upregulation of the secretory protein trefoil factor 3 (TFF3) in the...
