Serum macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) levels after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) may play an important role in the pathogenesis of acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), as MIF plays an important role to regulate the production of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), one of the inflammatory cytokines which induces and exacerbates aGVHD. We examined the ass...
متن کاملCorrelation between urine macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF)/creatinine ratio and time after kidney transplantation
Abstract Background: Despite the long-standing association of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) with delayed-type hypersensitivity response, the potential role of MIF in chronic allograft nephropathy is unknown. The association between upregulation of MIF expression, macrophage and T cell infiltration and the severity of chronic allograft nephropathy suggests that MIF may be an ...

متن کاملMalakoplakia After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation.
A 32-year-old woman named A.C. was diagnosed five years ago with stage IIIB nodular sclerosing Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). Following initial chemotherapy, she had refractory disease as evidenced by hypermetabolic activity on positron-emission tomography (PET) scan. A.C. was treated with a short course of salvage chemotherapy, stem cell collection, and autologous HSCT about 11 months after initial di...
متن کاملIncreased serum levels of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) in patients with microscopic polyangiitis
OBJECTIVE To test the hypothesis that macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is involved in the disease activity of systemic vasculitis. METHODS Patients with systemic vasculitis were divided into three groups based on the size of the affected vessels. Microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) was considered as small vessel vasculitis (SVV), polyarteritis nodosa as medium-sized vessel vasculitis (...
