LEF1/TCF1 Alpha [MD158R]
Description LEF1 or TCF1 alpha participates in the Wnt signaling pathway, activates transcription of target genes in the presence of CTNNB1 and EP300. It may play a role in hair cell differentiation and follicle morphogenesis. TLE1, TLE2, TLE3 and TLE4 repress transactivation mediated by LEF1 and CTNNB1. It regulates T-cell receptor alpha enhancer function. PIAG antagonizes both Wnt-dependent and Wnt-independent activation by LEF1. Isoform 3 lacks the CTNNB1 interaction domain and may be an antagonist for Wnt signaling. Isoform 5 transcriptionally activates the fibronectin promoter, binds to and represses transcription from the E-cadherin promoter in a CTNNB1-independent manner, and is involved in reducing cellular aggregation and increasing cell migration of pancreatic cancer cells. Isoform 1 transcriptionally activates MYC and CCND1 expression and enhances proliferation of pancreatic tumor cells.

Leptin/Obesity [F-3]
Description Although there is substantial evidence that body weight is physiologically regulated, the molecular basis of obesity is unknown. Five single-gene mutations in mice that result in an obese phenotype have been identified. The first such recessive obesity mutation, the obese mutation (Ob), was identified in 1950. Mutation of Ob results in profound obesity and type II diabetes as part of a syndrome that resembles morbid obesity in humans. It has been postulated that the Ob gene product may function as a component of a signaling pathway in adipose tissue that functions to regulate body fat depot size. The cloning and sequence analysis of the mouse Ob gene and its human homolog have been described. Ob encodes an adipose tissue-specific mRNA with a highly conserved 167 amino acid open reading frame. The predicted amino acid sequence is 84% identical between human and mouse and has the features of a secreted protein. A nonsense mutation in codon 105 has been found in the original congenic C57B Host Mouse Application ELISA, Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Immunoprecipitation (IP), Western Blot (WB) Reactivity Human -

L-FABP (Liver Fatty Binding Protein) [F9]
Description Fatty acid-binding proteins, designated FABPs, are a family of homologous cytoplasmic proteins that are expressed in a highly tissue-specific manner and play an integral role in the balance between lipid and carbohydrate metabolism. FABPs mediate fatty acid (FA) and/or hydrophobic ligand uptake, transport and targeting within their respective tissues. The mechanisms underlying these actions can give rise to both passive diffusional uptake and protein-mediated transmembrane transport of FAs. FABPs are expressed in adipocytes (A-FABP), brain (B-FABP), epithelium (E-FABP, psoriasis-associated FABP, PA-FABP), striated muscle and heart (H-FABP, mammary-derived growth inhibitor or MDGI), intestine (I-FABP), liver (L-FABP), myelin (M-FABP) and testis (T-FABP). Liver-specific FABP (L-FABP) expression is modulated by developmental, hormonal, dietary and pharmacological factors, and is required for cholesterol synthesis and metabolism.

LGR5/GPR49 [8G9]
Description Leucine-rich repeat containing G protein-coupled receptor 5 (LGR5) is a seven-transmembrane G-protein coupled receptor (GPR49). It belongs to the family of glycoprotein hormone receptor family. LGR5 is present in the endometrium layer. The LGR5 gene is located on human chromosome location 12q21.1. LGR5 binds to R-spondin and enhances the Wnt/ β-catenin pathway. It stimulates tumor progression and induces colorectal cancer development. Lgr5 acts as a potential stem cell marker in numerous adult tissues. It has pathological significance in various cancers, like breast, colon, stomach, liver and esophagus. Elevated expression of LGR5 is associated with breast, ovarian, colon and hepatocellular cancers. Breast cancer patients with high-grade ER- and high levels of LGR5 expression often die due to breast cancer. Most fatal cases of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) were LGR5+. Some studies find that the LGR5 expression pattern can be used as a biomarker to identify patients that need thera Host Rabbit Application Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Reactivity Human -
LHRH Receptor/GnRHR [F1G4[
Description Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) is released in a pulsatile manner that varies with the reproductive cycle. This hypothalamic hormone is transported to the pituitary, where it binds to specific receptors and regulates the synthesis and release of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). The GnRH receptor (GnRHR), like most G protein-coupled receptors, contains a seven transmembrane domain. However, unlike most G protein-coupled receptors, the GnRHR lacks an intracellular C-terminal domain. The GnRHR gene is thought to be regulated by GnRH and activin A, and has been shown to undergo alternative splicing.

LIN28 [4F5G6]
Description LIN28 is a highly conserved, RNA-binding protein (RBP). It plays an important role as a translational enhancer, leading specific mRNAs to polysomes and therefore increasing the competence of protein synthesis. LIN28 was identified as a negative regulator of miRNA biogenesis and suggested to play a central role in blocking miRNA-mediated differentiation in stem cells and certain cancers. LIN28 is expressed by various undifferentiated embryonic cell types. Anti- LIN28 has been used as a sensitive marker for germ cell tumors. The positive staining of LIN28 in yolk sac tumors showed an advantage over OCT4, which is negative in these tumors. The nuclear reactivity of this antibody maybe observed in the myoepithelial cells of the salivary gland.
