Background: Macrophage migration inhibitory factor(MIF) is a protein which in humans is encoded by the MIF gene.1, 2 This gene is located to human chromosome 22q11.2.3 It is remarkably small, it has 3 exons separated by introns of only 189 and 95 bp, and covers less than 1 kb.4 This gene encodes a lymphokine that may be involved in cell-mediated immunity, immunoregulation, and inflammation.5 MIF plays a role in the regulation of macrophage function in host defense through the suppression of anti-inflammatory effects of glucocorticoids. This lymphokine and the JAB1 protein might form a complex in the cytosol near the peripheral plasma membrane, which may possibly indicate a role in integrin signaling pathways. MIF also plays a central role in the toxic response to endotoxemia and possibly septic shock.Macrophage migration inhibitory factor has been reported to interact with COP9 constitutive photomorphogenic homolog subunit 5, CD74, BNIPL, and CXCR4.

Application Details

Application Notes:

Application Note: Useful in Sandwich ELISA for Quantitative Detection of Antigen. Aliquot 0.1 mL per well of the 10000pg/mL, 5000pg/mL, 2500pg/mL, 1250pg/mL, 625pg/mL, 312pg/mL, 156pg/mL human MIF standard solutions into the precoated 96-well plate. Add 0.1 mL of the sample diluent buffer into the control well (Zero well). Add 0.1 mL of each properly diluted sample of humancell culture supernates, serum, plasma(heparin), saliva or urine to each empty well. It is recommended that each human MIF standard solution and each sample be measured in duplicate.
