Biochem/physiol Actions
DIF-1 (differentiation-inducing factor-1) is isolated from a Dictyostelium slime mold, and is used to inhibit proliferation/promote differentiation in various cell lines.
DIF-1 is a cell differentiation inducing factor.
DIF-1 is a cell differentiation inducing factor.
Differentiation-inducing factor-1 (DIF-1) blocks the migration and invasion of cells and decreases the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-2. It prevents the proliferation of cells using glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3)-dependent mechanism. DIF-1 is more active when compared to DIF-2 in promoting stalk cell differentiation under submerged assay conditions.

The Dictyostelium transcription factor STATc is tyrosine phosphorylated and accumulates in the nucleus when cells are exposed either to hyper-osmotic stress or to the prestalk-inducing polyketide DIF-1. In the case of stress STAT activation is mediated by regulated dephosphorylation; whereby

Exposure of monolayer Dictyostelium cells to the signalling polyketide DIF-1 causes DimB, a bZIPtranscription factor, to accumulate in the nucleus where it induces prestalk gene expression. Here we analyse DimB signalling during normal development. In slugs DimB is specifically nuclear

Stem cell transplantation therapy is a promising option for treatment of severe ischaemic heart disease. Dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) differentiates P19CL6 embryonic carcinoma cells into cardiomyocyte-like cells, but with low differentiation capacity. To improve the degree of this differentiation, we have

Differentiation-inducing factor-1 (DIF-1) is a morphogen originally identified in the amoebozoan Dictyostelium discoideum. In mammalian cells, it has been shown to activate GSK3β, which in turn is expected to reduce levels of β-catenin and cyclin D1, thus mediating DIF-1 antiproliferative

The polyketide DIF-1 induces Dictyostelium amoebae to form stalk cells in culture. To better define its role in normal development, we examined the phenotype of a mutant blocking the first step of DIF-1 synthesis, which lacks both DIF-1 and its
