Aim: The role of trefoil factor 3 (intestinal) (TFF3) has been analyzed in a multitude of cancers, e.g. breast cancer and gastrointestinal cancers, and has been associated with poor prognosis. Still, the role of TFF3 in ovarian cancers is not clear. Materials and methods: Expression analysis of TFF3 in n = 91 ovarian cancer patients was performed by immunohistochemistry of primary paraffin embedded tumor samples.
