investigation of leptin, leukemia inhibitory factor (lif), and il-6 serum levels in myeloid leukemia
نویسندگان
چکیده
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 patients. materials and methods: we investigated serum level of leptin, lif, and il-6 levels, body mass index, hemoglobin, and hematocrit in 30 myeloid leukemia patients (15 patients with acute and 15 with chronic myeloid leukemia) before chemotherapy, and compared the results with 15 healthy controls. results: leptin, lif and il-6 serum levels, and lipid profile in myeloied leukemic patient was significantly different from the control group (p<0.05). the relationship between leptin and bmi was statistically significant in control group, whereas in the patient group, there were no significant relationship between leptin and bmi. conclusion: lipid profile and leptin, lif, and il-6 serum levels of leukemic patients were significantly different from normal population.

متن کاملThe Comparison of Leukemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF) Concentration in the Serum and Cerebrospinal Fluid of Children with Bacterial Meningitis
Abstract Background and objectives: Meningitis is one of the most common infectious of the central nervous system (CNS), defined as an inflammation of the meninges. LIF is a potent pro-inflammatory factor. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) contains the growth factors and cytokines whose concentrations have been changed in most neurological diseases. The aim of this study was to determine the LIF conce...
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 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 کاملAberrant expression of leukemia inhibitory factor receptor (LIFR) and leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) is associated with tubal pregnancy occurrence.
BACKGROUND/AIM Tubal pregnancy is a major cause of maternal death in the first trimester and exploration of its underlying molecular mechanism is of great importance. This study aimed to explore the association of tubal pregnancy with leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and leukemia inhibitory factor receptor (LIFR) expression in oviduct tissues. MATERIALS AND METHODS Immunohistochemistry was pe...
