Background Information

MIF is a pleiotropic cytokine that contributes to the pathogenesis of many autoimmune diseases through its upstream immunoregulatory function and its polymorphic genetic locus. MIF is a highly conserved protein of 12.5 kDa, with evolutionarily ancient homologues in plants, protozoans, nematodes, and invertebrates.
