Western blot : Rat Monoclonal [IMG39N7D10] to LIF ab138002 staining at 1/1000 dilution, shown in green; Rabbit anti GAPDH ab181602 loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in magenta. A band was observed at 65-80 kDa. The identity of the band detected at ~30kDa is unknown. To generate this image, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 3pc Milk in TBS-0.1 % Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rat 800CW and Goat anti-Rabbit 680RD at 1/20,000 dilution.

Supplementary information

Leukemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF) also known as LIF protein plays a critical mechanical role in cell communication and survival. It is a glycoprotein with a molecular weight (LIF MW) generally around 19 kilodaltons. In various tissues particularly in the mouse LIF expression occurs in the bone marrow muscle and notably the nervous system. Besides its presence in normal tissues it shows up in embryonic stem cells where it maintains their pluripotency in culture conditions.
Biological function summary

LIF influences cell differentiation growth and inflammatory response. As part of the interleukin-6 cytokine family LIF exerts its effects through a receptor complex involving LIFR (LIF receptor) and GP130. The LIF protein's signaling controls processes like neuronal cell differentiation and bone formation. It impacts hematopoietic cells and supports embryonic implantation and placental development by preparing the uterine environment.

Pathways

The LIF protein is essential in the JAK/STAT signaling pathway which regulates gene expression vital for survival and proliferation. It also interacts with the MAPK/ERK pathway ensuring diverse cellular responses. These pathways link LIF to related proteins like STAT3 and ERK1/2 which mediate further downstream effects. The interplay between these signaling cascades highlights LIF's role in managing cell survival and proliferation in various contexts.

LIF contributes to physiological and pathological states. In cancer such as leukemia LIF influences tumor growth and cancer cell survival. The interaction with other cytokines like Interleukin-6 enhances its effect in oncogenic processes. In inflammatory diseases like rheumatoid arthritis LIF's role relates to inflammation and joint destruction. Understanding its interaction with inflammatory mediators can aid in targeted therapeutic strategies.

Target data

LIF has the capacity to induce terminal differentiation in leukemic cells. Its activities include the induction of hematopoietic differentiation in normal and myeloid leukemia cells, the induction of neuronal cell differentiation, and the stimulation of acute-phase protein synthesis in hepatocytes.
