What's a GeneRIF?

Slfn3 is an important regulator of the rat intestinal epithelial phenotype, and may represent a novel common pathway for the regulation of intestinal epithelial differentiation.
Title: Regulation of epithelial differentiation in rat intestine by intraluminal delivery of an adenoviral vector or silencing RNA coding for Schlafen 3.
Slfn2 and Slfn3 play essential roles in the control of mouse malignant melanoma cell proliferation and/or anchorage-independent growth
Title: Expression and regulatory effects of murine Schlafen (Slfn) genes in malignant melanoma and renal cell carcinoma.
our present data suggest that Slfn-3 inhibits multiple cancer stem cell characteristics of FOLFOX-resistant colon cancer stem-like cells.
Title: Schlafen-3 decreases cancer stem cell marker expression and autocrine/juxtacrine signaling in FOLFOX-resistant colon cancer cells.
Intestinal Slfn3 expression was increased substantially after birth (2.1- +/- .5-fold) and on days 1 and 5 (P < .02). Slfn3 was higher after birth in liver and lung but decreased sharply thereafter.
Title: Schlafen 3 changes during rat intestinal maturation.
These results suggest that cyclic strain induces an absorptive phenotype characterized by increased dipeptidyl dipeptidase activity via enzymatic induction of Schlafen 3 in rat IEC-6 cells.
Title: Schlafen 3 induction by cyclic strain regulates intestinal epithelial differentiation.
Slfn3 could have a role in T cell differentiation and activation.

Slfn-3 plays a critical role in regulating intestinal mucosal differentiation.
Title: Schlafen-3: a novel regulator of intestinal differentiation.
Schlafen 3, a novel negative regulator of growth, which is markedly downregulated in the colonic mucosa of the aged, may play a role in regulating colonic mucosal growth during aging.

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.
