LIF Upregulates Expression of NK-1R in NHBE Cells

Leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), a cytokine at the interface between neurobiology and immunology, is mainly mediated through JAK/STAT pathway and MAPK/ERK pathway. Evidence suggested LIF is related to the higher expression of neurokinin-1 receptor (NK-1R) in asthma. In this study, the immunohistoch...
