Mouse Leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) Monoclonal Antibody | anti-LIF antibody
Mouse Anti-Human LIF Monoclonal Antibody
EIA: This antibody is reactive to recombinant human LIF in indirect ELISA.
Mouse monoclonal antibody to human Leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF).
Background:
LIF is a cytokine with important functions in diversified biological processes including cell differentiation, inflammatory response, neuronal development and cancer progression. LIF can induce the terminal differentiation of leukemia cells, thus it inhibits the further progression of leukemia. However, it has opposite effects on many other cancers, such as breast cancer and bladder cancer etc. Several recent studies have shown that LIF might play a significant role in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) tumorigenesis development. Treatment of pancreatic cancer by blocking LIF is currently under investigation. Research also demonstrated that elevated LIF level in pancreatic tissue and circulation was correlated with the cancer progression, indicating that LIF might be useful as a biomarker.
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the epidermal growth factor superfamily. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate the 53-amino acid epidermal growth factor peptide. This protein acts a potent mitogenic factor that plays an important role in the growth, proliferation and differentiation of numerous cell types. This protein acts by binding with high affinity to the cell surface receptor, epidermal growth factor receptor. Defects in this gene are the cause of hypomagnesemia type 4. Dysregulation of this gene has been associated with the growth and progression of certain cancers. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]
