Interaction of macrophage-migration-inhibitory factor with haematin [PDF]
Macrophage-migration-inhibitory factor (MIF) is retained by S-hexylglutathione–agarose but is not specifically eluted in high yield. Human liver MIF was purified in high yield using retention by phenyl-agarose at low ionic strength and cation-exchange FPLC as described for bovine lens MIF [Rosengren, Bucala, Åman, Jacobsson, Odh, Metz and Rorsman (1996)

Macrophage migration inhibitory factor, a role in COPD [PDF]
Macrophage migration inhibitor factor (MIF) is a pluripotent cytokine associated with several different inflammatory conditions, but its role within lung inflammation and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is unclear. This study aimed to examine MIF in both stable COPD and during acute exacerbations (AECOPD).

The Dichotomic Role of Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor in Neurodegeneration [PDF]
Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a pleiotropic cytokine expressed by different cell types and exerting multiple biological functions. It has been shown that MIF may be involved in several disorders, including neurodegenerative disorders such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Parkinson disease (PD), and Huntington disease (HD), that
