Treatment of M1 myeloid leukemia cells with leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) causes activation of transcription factors Stat1, Stat3 and Stat5a (signal transducers and activators of transcription). DNA-binding of Stat proteins was detectable for extended periods of time in LIF-treated M1 cells, which simultaneously underwent terminal differentiation. The relative composition of Stat factors in the protein-DNA complexes changed during time. Whereas Stat3 was activated up to 36 h during treatment with LIF, Stat5a was activated only short-termed. Similarly, high expression of the immediate early gene CIS (cytokine-inducible SH2-containing protein), a known target gene of Stat5 in hematopoietic cells, occurred only during the onset of differentiation. This suggests a role of Stat5a in the early phase of LIF-induced differentiation and growth arrest of M1 cells.

The signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) protein is a key regulator of cell differentiation, proliferation, and survival in hematopoiesis, immune responses, and other biological systems. STAT3 transcriptional activity is strictly regulated through various mechanisms, such as phosphorylation and dephosphorylation. In this study, we attempted to identify novel phosphatases which regulate STAT3 activity in response to cytokine stimulations.

Primary cilia on neural stem/progenitor cells (NSPCs) play an important role in determining cell fate, although the regulatory mechanisms involved in the ciliogenesis remain largely unknown. In this study, we analyzed the effect of the leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) for the primary cilia in immortalized human NSPCs. LIF withdrawal elongated the primary cilia length, whereas the addition of LIF shortened it.

Extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH) expands hematopoietic capacity outside of the bone marrow in response to inflammatory conditions, including infections and cancer. Because of its inducible nature, EMH offers a unique opportunity to study the interaction between hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) and their niche. In cancer patients, the spleen frequently serves as an EMH organ and provides myeloid cells that may worsen pathology.

Adipose-derived cells (ADCs) from white adipose tissue are promising stem cell candidates because of their large regenerative reserves and the potential for cardiac regeneration. However, given the heterogeneity of ADC and its unsolved mechanisms of cardiac acquisition, ADC-cardiac transition efficiency remains low. In this study, we explored the heterogeneity of ADCs and the cellular kinetics of 39,432 single-cell transcriptomes along the leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF)-induced ADC-cardiac transition.

The brain consists of three major cell types: neurons and two glial cell types (astrocytes and oligodendrocytes). Although they are generated from common multipotent neural stem/precursor cells (NS/PCs), embryonic NS/PCs cannot generate all of the cell types at the beginning of brain development. NS/PCs first undergo extensive self-renewal to expand their pools, and then acquire the potential to produce neurons, followed by glial cells.
