Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

Leukemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF) is a pleiotropic glycoprotein originally described to inhibit the proliferation of the murine myeloid leukemic cell line M1, while inducing differentiation into macrophages. Other activities were later identified to LIF, which is known by a variety of synonyms, including DIF, D-factor, DIA, DRF, CNDF, HILDA, HSF-III, and MLPLI. Human LIF exerts its actions through a receptor comprising a 190 kDa LIF-binding α-chain (130 kDa, mouse) and a 130 kDa signal-transducing β-chain (gp130), which is shared with CNTF, OSM, L-6 and IL-11. As such, it is a member of the gp130 family of the cytokine receptor superfamily. LIF receptors have been identified on several cells, including monocytes, liver, placenta and embryonic stem cells. Natural LIF is heavily glycosylated, showing an apparent molecular weight of 32 kDa to 62 kDa, depending on the source, but absence of glycosylation appears not to affect its biological activity. A single gene encodes LIF, which is secreted as a single chain glycoprotein containing 180 amino acids for human or mouse with a conserved disulfide bond. Human and mouse LIF share 78% sequence homology. Human LIF can activate mouse cells, but mouse LIF cannot activate human cells.

Forme physique

Solution, 0.2 μm filtered, in phosphate buffered saline containing 0.02% TWEEN® 20.

Remarque sur l'analyse

The proliferative activity of human LIF is measured in culture using the human leukemic cell line, TF-1.

Monitoring cell-state transition in pluripotent cells is invaluable for application and basic research. In this study, we demonstrate the pertinence of noninvasive, label-free Raman spectroscopy to monitor and characterize the cell-state transition of mouse stem cells undergoing reprogramming. Using an

We recently succeeded in inducing germline transmission by transferring chicken testicular cells into heterologous testes. This study was designed subsequently to identify pluripotent cells in the testicular cells, which would induce the germline transmission. Testicular cells retrieved from juvenile (4-wk-old)

Leukemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF) is a stem cell growth factor used for the in vitro culture of pluripotent mouse embryonic stem cells (ES cells).

Naive pluripotent stem cells cultured in vitro using specialized media and inhibitors mimic "ground-state" cells from blastocysts.
