It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage. Shipping Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere. Background Leukemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF) has been shown to possess a remarkable variety of actions. It releases calcium from bone tissue, and is the differentiation inhibitory factor preventing spontaneous differentiation in normal embryonic stem cells[1]. Leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) is involved in both the neural and immune responses to injury. Its levels are increased in a variety of animal and human inflammatory conditions. Administration of Leukemia Inhibitory Factor can suppress inflammatory signs in some cases, for instance after intratracheal lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation. Leukemia Inhibitory Factor also increases corticosterone levels via the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal axis. Exogenously added Leukemia Inhibitory Factor induces acute phase protein expression and stimulates the production of proinflammatory cytokines and monocyte chemoattractants[2]. In the hematopoietic system, LIF induces the differentiation of certain leukemic cells and the proliferation of hematopoietic stem cells, megakaryocyte progenitor cells and DA1 cells. LIF also has activity in bone remodelling, induction of the acute phase response in hepatocytes, inhibition of adipogenesis, regulation of nerve differentiation and inhibition of kidney epithelial cell differentiation[3]. |
