Biology of the relaxin-like factor (RLF).
The relaxin-like factor (RLF) is a novel member of the insulin-IGF-relaxin family of hormones and growth factors. Also known as the Leydig cell insulin-like factor (Ley-I-L), this peptide and the mRNA encoding it appear to be expressed in very large quantities in the Leydig cells of the testis. However, it is also produced in the ovary of a number of species in both follicular theca cells and i...
متن کاملHigh affinity binding of 125I-labeled human tumor necrosis factor (LuKII) to specific cell surface receptors
125I-labeled TNF(LuKII) (tumor necrosis factor) binds specifically to human and mouse cell lines sensitive to the cytotoxic effect of TNF, but not to cells made resistant to TNF. TNF-sensitive cells have cell surface receptors with a high affinity for TNF(LuKII). Mouse TNF competes with TNF(LuKII) for receptor binding. Scatchard analysis of the binding data yielded linear plots and suggests tha...
متن کاملSpecific high-affinity receptors for neurotrophin-3 on sympathetic neurons.
When used at concentrations allowing interactions only with its high-affinity receptors, neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) promotes the survival of sensory neurons isolated from embryonic day 8 (E8) chicks, but not the survival of E11 sympathetic neurons. These sympathetic neurons (which can be rescued by the addition of NGF) display high-affinity receptors for NT-3 (Kd of 1.6 x 10(-11) M) that cannot be d...
متن کاملDevelopment of aptameric affinity ligands specific to human plasma coagulation factor VIII using SEC-SELEX
Protein specific aptamers are highly applicable affinity ligands in different fields of research and clinical applications. They have been developed against various targets, in particular, bio-macromolecules such as proteins. Among human proteins, the coagulation factors are the most attractive targets for aptamer selection and their specific aptamers had valuable characteristics in therapeutic...
