Macrophage migration inhibitory factor in rheumatoid arthritis.

Frontiers in bioscience : a journal and virtual library - 1 Jan 2005

Morand Eric F, Leech Michelle

Abstract excerpt

Rheumatoid arthritis is characterised by the interaction of multiple mediators, among the most important of which are cytokines. In recent years, extensive data demonstrates a pivotal role for one cytokine, macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), in fundamental events in innate and adaptive immunity. MIF has now been demonstrated to be involved in the pathogenesis of many diseases, but in the case of RA the...
