Leukemia inhibitory factor modulates cardiogenesis in embryoid bodies in opposite fashions.
Cardiogenesis is a multistep process regulated by a hierarchy of factors defining each developmental stage of the heart. One of these factors, leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), a member of the interleukin-6 family of cytokines, is expressed in embryonic and neonatal cardiomyocytes and induces cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. Many aspects of embryogenesis are faithfully recapitulated during in vitro d...
متن کاملOxygen tension modulates b-globin switching in embryoid bodies
Little is known about the factors influencing the hemoglobin switch in vertebrates during development. Inasmuch as the mammalian conceptus is exposed to changing oxygen tensions in utero, we examined the effect of different oxygen concentrations on b-globin switching. We used an in vitro model of mouse embryogenesis based on the differentiation of blastocyst-derived embryonic stem cells to embr...

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 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...
