MIF but not MIF-2 recruits inflammatory macrophages in an experimental polymicrobial sepsis model

open access: yes, 2021
Excessive inflammation drives the progression from sepsis to septic shock. Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is of interest because MIF promoter polymorphisms predict mortality in different infections, and anti-MIF antibody improves survival ...

Overexpression of Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor and Its Homologue D-Dopachrome Tautomerase as Negative Prognostic Factor in Neuroblastoma

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2019
Neuroblastoma (NB) represents one of the most frequent pediatric solid tumors. Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a cytokine exerting multiple biological functions.

MIF-expressing tumor cells show decreased markers of immunogenic cell death under serum-free conditions.

open access: yes, 2018
A-C, WT or MIF KD 4T1 cells were grown in 10% serum-containing media overnight, and then media was replaced with fresh 10% serum or serum-free media. After 24 hours, media was sampled and tested for extracellular ATP. After 48 hours, cells were harvested

Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor in Acute Adipose Tissue Inflammation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a pleiotropic cytokine and has been implicated in inflammatory diseases. However, little is known about the regulation of MIF in adipose tissue and its impact on wound healing.

The MIF-CD74 Inflammatory Axis in Alphaviral Infection

open access: yes, 2017
The expansion of mosquito-borne viral (arboviral) arthritis poses a significant threat to human health worldwide. Clinical reports show that arboviral arthritis can be persistent and debilitating, with evidence of bone pathology.

PANoptosis in the pathogenesis of myelodysplastic syndromes

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PANoptosis, a combination of three types of programmed cell death, is mediated by a large protein complex called a PANoptosome. In healthy bone marrow hematopoietic cells, PANoptosis is restricted by inhibitory signaling. In MDS, bone marrow cells become sensitive to the PANoptotic stimuli due to the aberrant inactivation of inhibitory signaling or ...

Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor (MIF) Expression Increases during Myocardial Infarction and Supports Pro-Inflammatory Signaling in Cardiac Fibroblasts

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2019
Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a pleiotropic cytokine known to play a major role in inflammatory diseases such as myocardial infarction (MI), where its expression increases.

Aging-associated Alteration in the Cardiac MIF-AMPK Cascade in Response to Ischemic Stress [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
An important role for a macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF)-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling pathway in ameliorating myocardial damage following ischemia/reperfusion has been described. An aging-associated reduction in AMPK activity

IGF2 knockout reduces but does not abolish osteosarcoma growth in vitro and in vivo

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
To test whether endogenous IGF2 promotes osteosarcoma growth, IGF2 was knocked out in Saos2 cells via CRISPR‐Cas9. KO cells showed reduced proliferation in vitro, and knockout xenografts in mice reached only ~25% of wild‐type tumor volume. Insulin‐like growth factor 2 (IGF2) is implicated in osteosarcoma, but direct functional evidence of its role is ...
