Expression of macrophage migration inhibitory factor and its receptor CD74 in systemic sclerosis

TL;DR: A case-control study in 20 SSc patients and 20 control subjects (CS) from southern Mexico was conducted as mentioned in this paper, where MIF and CD74 mRNA expression levels were quantified by real-time PCR, and MIF serum levels were measured by an ELISA kit, and evaluated by immunohistochemistry of skin biopsies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intravesical CD74 and CXCR4, macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) receptors, mediate bladder pain.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the contribution of individual urothelial MIF receptors to PAR4-induced HMGB1 release in vivo and in vitro and bladder pain in vivo.

Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor (MIF)-Deficient Mice

TL;DR: The recent development of Mif-deficient mice has confirmed the important regulatory role of MIF in inflammatory and autoimmune disease, and these strains will be of great value for continued research in the fields of immunology and tumor biology, as well as other areas.

Compositions and methods for the modulation of detrusor activity

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for diagnosing bladder disease and/or severity comprising screening for a MIF gene or MIF receptor gene polymporhism or expression level.
