Abstract
Leukemia-inhibitory factor (LIF) has been produced in essentially pure form from murine or human sources. A method of purifying this LIF is disclosed, as well as polypeptides having LIF activity which are not identical in amino acid sequence to any naturally occurring form of LIF. The polypeptides can be used for hindering the proliferation of myeloid Leukemia cells.
