Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), produced by many cell types, is a unique cytokine and critical tool of host defenses that have supportive roles in many diseases and conditions, such as septic shock and chronic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.

Macrophage migration inhibitory factor [PDF]

open access: yesCritical Care Medicine, 2005
Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) has been proposed to be the physiologic counter-regulator of glucocorticoid action within the immune system. In this role, MIF's position within the cytokine cascade is to act in concert with glucocorticoids to control both the "set point" and the magnitude of the inflammatory response. As well as overriding

Macrophage-Mediated Bone Formation in Scaffolds Modified With MSC-Derived Extracellular Matrix Is Dependent on the Migration Inhibitory Factor Signaling Pathway

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
The positive role of macrophages in the osteogenesis of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has been a recent research focus. On the other hand, MSCs could carefully regulate the paracrine molecules derived from macrophages.

Role for macrophage migration inhibitory factor in asthma [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2005
Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is an immunologic regulator that is expressed in inflammatory and autoimmune disorders. We investigated MIF's role in asthma using genetic approaches in a mouse model and in a cohort of asthma patients.

Brain Miffed by Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cell Biology, 2012
Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a cytokine which also exhibits enzymatic properties like oxidoreductase and tautomerase. MIF plays a pivotal role in innate and acquired immunity as well as in the neuroendocrine axis. Since it is involved in the pathogenesis of acute and chronic inflammation, neoangiogenesis, and cancer, MIF and its ...
