Macrophage migration inhibitory factor: a neuroendocrine modulator of chronic inflammation.

The Journal of endocrinology - 1 Oct 2003

Baugh J A, Donnelly S C

Abstract excerpt

The diverse actions of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) within the immuno-neuroendocrine system are yet to be fully understood, but it is clear that MIF plays a pivotal role in the regulation of both the innate and adaptive immune response. An emerging body of data presently indicates that MIF's position within the cytokine cascade is to act in concert with glucocorticoids to control the 'set point'...
