CLF-1/CLC Complex: Products

Cardiotrophin-like cytokine (CLC), also referred to as novel neurotrophin-1 (NNT-1) or B cell-stimulating factor-3 (BSF-3), is a member of the IL-6 family of structurally related cytokines that includes IL-6, CNTF, LIF, CT-1, IL-11 and OSM. CLC associates with the secreted soluble cytokine-like factor 1 (CLF-1), a member of the cytokine type I receptor family, to form the heteromeric composite cytokine CLC/CLF-1. CLC can also form an alternate composite cytokine with the soluble CNTF Ralpha.
