Family Type I cytokine receptor family
Function
Signal-transducing molecule. May have a common pathway with IL6ST. The soluble form inhibits the biological activity of LIF by blocking its binding to receptors on target cells.

Huh-7 cells Hepatocellular carcinoma Homo sapiens CVCL_0336
In Vivo Model
PDX tumors in cold Dulbeccos Modified Eagles Medium (DMEM) were minced into 1-2 mm3 fragments, and each fragment was subcutaneously transplanted into the dorsal flank of 6-week-old male NSG (non-obese diabetic; severe combined immunodeficiency; interleukin-2 receptor gamma chain null) mice. Tumor growth was monitored by bidimensional tumor measurements with a caliper twice a week until the endpoint.

Response regulation LIFR and SHP1 (PTPN6) positively regulate ferroptosis while LCN2 negatively regulates ferroptosis. Notably, an LCN2-neutralizing antibody enhances the ferroptosis-inducing and anticancer effects of sorafenib on hepatocellular carcinoma patient-derived xenograft tumors with low LIFR expression and high LCN2 expression.
