MIF in autoimmunity and novel therapeutic approaches

Autoimmunity Reviews
Stanislava Stosic-GrujicicFerdinando Nicoletti

Abstract

Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a multipotent cytokine implicated in the pathogenesis of numerous inflammatory and autoimmune disorders. Since anti-cytokine therapy is considered to be a promising therapeutic strategy, selective targeting of MIF with either anti-MIF antibody or specific chemical MIF inhibitors might offer new therapeutic avenues for these disorders. Considering the unique relationship between MIF and glucocorticoids, therapeutic antagonism of MIF could also represent an effective approach for steroid-sparing therapies in patients with refractory autoimmune diseases.

Autoimmune Diseases

Autoimmune diseases occur as a result of an attack by the immune system on the body’s own tissues resulting in damage and dysfunction. There are different types of autoimmune diseases, in which there is a complex and unknown interaction between genetics and the environment. Discover the latest research on autoimmune diseases here.

Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndromes

This feed focuses on a rare genetic condition called Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndromes, which are characterized by autoantibodies against multiple endocrine organs. This can lead to Type I Diabetes.

Autoimmune Hepatitis

Autoimmune hepatitis formerly called lupoid hepatitis, is a chronic, autoimmune disease of the liver that occurs when the body's immune system attacks liver cells causing the liver to be inflamed. Discover the latest research on autoimmune hepatitis here.
