MIF is a noncognate ligand of CXC chemokine receptors in inflammatory and atherogenic cell recruitment
Article Abstract:
A study to identify chemokine receptors, which are important in the treatment of inflammatory diseases, was conduced. The results showed that the cytokine macrophage migration inhibitory factor is a noncognate ligand of the chemokine receptors.
