Leukemia Inhibitory Factor Enhances Endogenous Cardiomyocyte Regeneration after Myocardial Infarction
Cardiac stem cells or precursor cells regenerate cardiomyocytes; however, the mechanism underlying this effect remains unclear. We generated CreLacZ mice in which more than 99.9% of the cardiomyocytes in the left ventricular field were positive for 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-β-d-galactoside (X-gal) staining immediately after tamoxifen injection. Three months after myocardial infarction (MI), th...
متن کاملInvestigation of Leptin, Leukemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF), and IL-6 Serum Levels in Myeloid Leukemia
Background: Leptin has been implicated in the differentiation and proliferation of hematopoietic cells. Leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) may play an important role, along with Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G- CSF), in the regulation of early hematopoietic stem cells. The aim of the study was to evaluate serum level of leptin, LIF, and IL-6 in myeloid leukemia p...
متن کاملEndogenous leukemia inhibitory factor protects photoreceptor cells against light-induced degeneration
PURPOSE Expression of leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) by a subset of Müller glia cells has recently been implicated in an endogenous survival response to photoreceptor injury in a model of inherited retinal degeneration. To investigate whether such a LIF-controlled survival pathway might be commonly induced upon photoreceptor injury independently of the nature of the toxic stimulus, we analyze...
متن کاملLeukemia Inhibitory Factor and Human Endometrial Receptivity
Embryo implantation requires both an activated blastocyst and a receptive endometrium. The human endometrium undergoes extensive remodeling in each menstrual cycle to prepare the endometrium for implantation, should conception occur in that cycle. For most of the cycle, the endometrium is retained in a non-receptive or refractory state and it will support implantation of the blastocyst for only...
متن کاملSolution structure of leukemia inhibitory factor.
The solution structure of a murine-human chimera of leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), a 180-residue cytokine with a molecular mass of 20 kDa, has been determined using multidimensional heteronuclear NMR techniques. The protein contains four alpha-helices, the relative orientations of which are well defined on the basis of long-range interhelical nuclear Overhauser effects. The helices are arran...
