MIF antibody | 2A10-4D3
Mouse anti Human MIF antibody, clone 2A10-4D3 recognizes human Macrophage migration inhibitory factor, also known as MIF, glycosylation-inhibiting factor, L-dopachrome isomerase or phenylpyruvate tautomerase. MIF is a 115 amino acid ~12.5 kDa pro-inflammatory cytokine playing a role in the innate immune response to bacterial pathogens. MIF plays a role in the regulation of macrophage function in host defense through the suppression of anti-inflammatory effects of glucocorticoids (UniProt:14174). MIF and the JAB1 protein form a complex in the cytosol near the peripheral plasma membrane, which may indicate an additional role in integrin signaling pathways (Kleemann et al. 2000). Mutation of the MIF gene is implicated in susceptibility and severity of early onset rheumatoid arthritis (Llamas-Covarrubias et al. 2013).
Mouse anti Human MIF antibody, clone 2A10-4D3 has been utilized successfully for the micro immunoaffinity isolation of human MIF from human serum for subsequent mass spectormetric immunoassay (Sherma 2014).
