Investigation 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 کاملLeukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and LIF receptor in human lung. Distribution and regulation of LIF release.
The distribution and regulation of leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and its receptor (LIFR) in human lung tissue is unknown. We recently found that LIF was immunolocalized to several cell types in human airways, and that exogenous LIF modulated neural and contractile responses of explanted airways. The present study aimed to determine the cellular distribution and regulation of gene transcripts...
متن کاملAgrin pathway is controlled by leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) in murine implantation.
Agrin is the heparan sulfate proteoglycan (HSPG) that is well known as the molecule that aggregates acetylcholine receptor (AChR) through muscle specific kinase (MuSK) and rapsyn at neuromuscular junctions. HSPGs are spatiotemporally expressed in embryonic and maternal tissues during implantation. The present study examined the role of agrin in the mouse embryo using leukemia inhibitory factor ...
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 کاملThe effects of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) in lepromatous lepra reaction.
Lepra reaction in lepromatous leprosy is a most troublesome acute incident in the chronic, drawn-out course of the disease. So far, there has been no way of controlling satisfactorily the characteristic fever, malaise, joint and muscle aches, and cutaneous lesions' which periodically beset many of these patients. Since adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) has produced marked symptomatic benefit i...
