Neuroendocrine properties of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) Fingerle-Rowson GR; Bucala RImmunol Cell Biol 2001[Aug]; 79 (4): 368-75The cytokine macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is produced by neuroendocrine and immune tissues and possesses several features that allow it to be characterized as a neuroendocrine mediator. Its pro-inflammatory action and its pathogenic role in inflammatory diseases, such as septic shock, arthritis and other diseases, have clearly been demonstrated and may be based in part on neuroendocrine mechanisms. Macrophage migration inhibitory factor possesses glucocorticoid-antagonist properties within the immune system and participates in the regulation of several endocrine circuits. This review summarizes the current state of MIF research and focuses on MIF expression and function in nervous and endocrine tissues.|Animals[MESH]|Brain/immunology/metabolism[MESH]|Energy Metabolism/physiology[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Glucocorticoids/antagonists & inhibitors[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Inflammation Mediators/metabolism[MESH]|Macrophage Migration-Inhibitory Factors/chemistry/genetics/immunology/*physiology[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Neurosecretory Systems/chemistry/immunology/*metabolism[MESH]|Phylogeny[MESH]|Reproduction/physiology[MESH] |
