LIF binds the dimeric receptor LIFRα\/gp130 to form a functional trimer (2). The trimeric LIF\/LIFR\/gp130 complex further interacts with JAK1, making it catalytically competent. The activated JAK1 then initiates a tyrosine phosphorylation cascade that stimulates three distinct signaling pathways: JAK\/STAT, MAPK, and PI3K pathways (3). During development, LIF plays important roles in embryonic stem cell pluripotency, blastocyst implantation, and early neural development. It is also crucial for intestinal stem cell and neuronal stem cell self-renewal and regeneration, muscle and kidney tissue regeneration after injury, and immune tolerance (4). LIF's regulatory role in cancer is context-dependent. It plays a tumor suppressive role in leukemia, but is overexpressed and exerts an oncogenic effect in solid tumors (4,5). Targeting LIF for cancer therapy is promising for disease management (6,7).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nCD118; CD118 antigen; FLJ98106; FLJ99923; Leukemia inhibitory factor receptor; leukemia inhibitory factor receptor alpha; LIF receptor; LIF receptor alpha; LIF receptor subunit alpha; LIF-R; LIFR; SJS2; STWS; SWS\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 200\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799952642217,"sku":"85486T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-85486t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
