| 19009023    | 2009 | Cell line : - Source : Department of Pathology of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical College, American Type Culture Collection (Manassas, VA, USA). Sample Type : - No. of Sample : - Stage : - | Immunohistochemistry, Cell culture, Cell invasion assay, RT-PCR, Tautomerase activity. | Up-regulation | - | MIF upregulation is associated with increased tumor differentiation, lymph node invasion, and hepatic metastasis, consistent with the intimate involvement of MIF in colorectal carcinogenesis and metastasis. MIF may enhance colorectal tumor growth and invasion through induction of VEGF and MMP-9. These findings suggest that the level of MIF in both serum and colorectal tissue may be a useful marker in the diagnosis of colorectal cancer and its metastasis to the liver. A total of 77 patients (who underwent colorectal cancer diagnosis during the period 2003-2005) participated in this study, 8 with normal intestinal mucosa, 20 with colorectal adenomas, and 49 with colorectal carcinomas. |

| Description | This gene encodes a lymphokine involved in cell-mediated immunity, immunoregulation, and inflammation. It plays a role in the regulation of macrophage function in host defense through the suppression of anti-inflammatory effects of glucocorticoids. This lymphokine 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.
