Mouse Induced Myeloid Leukemia Cell Differentiation Protein (MCL1) CLIA Kit

Background

Induced myeloid leukemia cell differentiation protein MCL1 is an anti-apoptotic protein that plays a critical role in regulating cell survival, particularly in hematopoietic and immune cells Mcl-1 belongs to the Bcl-2 family and helps prevent apoptosis by interacting with pro-apoptotic Bcl-2 family members, inhibiting their activity and preventing mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization Mcl-1 is essential for the survival of various cell types, including myeloid cells, and its expression is tightly regulated during cell differentiation and immune responses Its dysregulation has been linked to cancer, particularly hematological malignancies, where overexpression of Mcl-1 promotes the survival of malignant cells and contributes to chemotherapy resistance In addition to its role in apoptosis, Mcl-1 is involved in regulating mitochondrial function, cell metabolism, and the stress response Mcl-1’s central role in both cell survival and apoptosis makes it a critical factor in normal cellular function and a potential target for therapeutic intervention in cancer and other diseases related to cell survival regulation
