Background of LIF
LIF is a pleiotropic cytokine produced at the maternal-fetal interface which has been shown to play an essential role in implantation in mice. This gene is mapped to 22q11-q12.2, between the Philadelphia translocation BCR gene and the breakpoint of the translocation in cell line GM2324 at 22q12.2. LIF is produced in high amounts by the human endometrium and the trophoblast itself, and LIF receptors are present on cytotrophoblast cells. LIF could, thus, play a role in modulating HLA-G production and immune tolerance at the maternal-fetal interface.
Antibody Validation
Boster validates all antibodies on WB, IHC, ICC, Immunofluorescence, and ELISA with known positive control and negative samples to ensure specificity and high affinity, including thorough antibody incubations.

Figure 1. IHC analysis of LIF using anti-LIF antibody (PB9036).
LIF was detected in paraffin-embedded section of human lung cancer tissues. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed in citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution) for 20 mins. The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then incubated with 1μg/ml rabbit anti-LIF Antibody (PB9036) overnight at 4°C. Biotinylated goat anti-rabbit IgG was used as secondary antibody and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. The tissue section was developed using Strepavidin-Biotin-Complex (SABC)(Catalog # SA1022) with DAB as the chromogen.

The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then incubated with 1μg/ml rabbit anti-LIF Antibody (PB9036) overnight at 4°C. Biotinylated goat anti-rabbit IgG was used as secondary antibody and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C.

Figure 3. Western blot analysis of LIF using anti-LIF antibody (PB9036).
Electrophoresis was performed on a 5-20% SDS-PAGE gel at 70V (Stacking gel) / 90V (Resolving gel) for 2-3 hours. The sample well of each lane was loaded with 30 ug of sample under reducing conditions.
Lane 1: human Hela whole cell lysates,
Lane 2: human placenta tissue lysates,
Lane 3: human A431 whole cell lysates,
Lane 4: human A549 whole cell lysates.
After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane at 150 mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% non-fat milk/TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with rabbit anti-LIF antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (Catalog # PB9036) at 0.5 μg/mL overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1:5000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an Enhanced Chemiluminescent detection (ECL) kit (Catalog # EK1002) with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for LIF at approximately 36 kDa. The expected band size for LIF is at 22 kDa.

5 Customer Q&As for Anti-LIF Antibody Picoband™
Question
We have tried in the past anti-LIF antibody for WB on left coronary artery in the past. I am using human, and We are going to use the antibody for IHC-P next. I would like examining left coronary artery as well as embryonic stem cell in our next experiment. Could give a recommendation on which antibody would work the best for IHC-P?

Asked: 2020-02-12
Answer
The anti-LIF antibody (PB9036) has not been validated for cross reactivity specifically with bovine tissues, but there is a good chance of cross reactivity. We have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in bovine you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.

Asked: 2019-08-21
Answer
Based on literature colon does express LIF. Based on Uniprot.org, LIF is expressed in left coronary artery, embryonic stem cell, colon, among other tissues. Regarding which tissues have LIF expression, here are a few articles citing expression in various tissues:
Colon, Pubmed ID: 15489334
