| Description |
Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor (MIF) was one of the first cytokine activities to be discovered and was initially described as a T-cell derived factor that inhibits the random migration of macrophages. Recently, MIF was rediscovered as a pituitary hormone that acts as the counter-regulatory hormone for glucocorticoid action within the immune system. MIF was released from macrophages and T-cells in response to physiological concentrations of glucocorticoids. The secreted MIF counter-regulates the immunosuppressive effects of steroids on immune cell activation and cytokine production. MIF plays a critical role in the host control of inflammation and immunity. |

| Reconstitution |
Centrifuge vial prior to opening. Reconstitute to 1 mg/ml with 200 ul sterile distilled water. |
| Storage and Stability |
Store at 2-4C for short term storage or at -20C in small aliquots for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |
| Cross-Reactivity |
Reacts with both rat and mouse MIF. Cross-reactivity to MIF of other species has not been determined. |
| Application Notes |
For Western blot, use a working dilution of 1:2000. For Immunohistochemistry, use a working dilution of 1:500. The optimal concentration should be determined by the user for each specific application. |
