+== Function ==
+'''Macrophage inhibitory factor''' or '''Macrophage migration inhibitory factor''' (MIF) is an inflammatory cytokine.  '''MIF2''' or '''D-dopachrome tautomerase'''  or '''D-dopachrome decarboxylase''' is a pro-inflammatory cytokine which regulates the innate and adaptive immune response<ref>PMID:22507380</ref>.  MIF is released to the blood stream upon stimulation of white blood cells by bacterial antigens<ref>PMID:11032394</ref>.
-'''Macrophage inhibitory factor''' (MIF) is an inflammatory cytokine.  MIF is released to the blood stream upon stimulation of white blood cells by bacterial antigens.  MIF contains two different catalytic sites.  A phenylpyruvate tautomerase site is located in the N terminal.  A disulfide reductase site is located in the tetrapeptide Cys-Ala-Leu-Cys in position 57-60.
+== Relevance ==
+MIF plays a role in various solid and hematologic tumors<ref>PMID:19326434</ref>.  MIF is overexpressed in various tumors and is suggested to be the molecular link between chronic inflammation and cancer.  MIF has a role in skin inflammation, immune response, disease, tumorigenesis and wound healing<ref>PMID:15659324</ref>.  MIF has a role in Alzheimer disease and its inhibition may prevent the disease onset<ref>PMID:20200619</ref>.
