Human leukemia inhibitory factor inhibits development of experimental atherosclerosis.
The effect of human leukemia inhibitory factor (hLIF) on the development of atherosclerosis was investigated in an experimental animal model. Two conditions were examined: one in which lesions could arise because of the influence of both "injury" (cuffed vessel) and diet and one in which only the effect of diet could be significant in other areas of the vasculature (aorta). At time zero, the ri...
متن کاملCodon Optimization, Cloning and Expression of the Human Leukemia Inhibitory Factor (hLIF) in E. coli
Background: Leukemia inhibitor factor (LIF) is a very important pleiotropic cytokine which belongs to interleukin-6 (IL-6) family. LIF exerts multiple effects on different types of cells and tissues with numerous regulatory effects in vivo and in vitro. It is a lymphoid factor, which performs a number of activities including cholinergic neuron differentiation, contro...
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 کاملLeukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) inhibits angiogenesis in vitro.
Using an in vitro model in which endothelial cells can be induced to invade a three-dimensional collagen gel to form capillary-like tubular structures, we demonstrate that leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) inhibits angiogenesis in vitro. The inhibitory effect was observed on both bovine aortic endothelial (BAE) and bovine microvascular endothelial (BME) cell, and occurred irrespective of the ang...
متن کاملLeukemia inhibitory factor inhibits neuronal terminal differentiation through STAT3 activation.
The discovery of stem cells in the adult central nervous system raises questions concerning the neurotrophic factors that regulate postnatal neuronal development. Olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs) are a useful model, because they are capable of robust neurogenesis throughout adulthood. We have investigated the role of leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) in postnatal neuronal development by using O...
