    Product Information

    Product Usage Information

    This product is the carrier free version of product #87501. All data were generated using the same antibody clone in the standard formulation which contains BSA and glycerol.

    This formulation is ideal for use with technologies requiring specialized or custom antibody labeling, including fluorophores, metals, lanthanides, and oligonucleotides. It is not recommended for ChIP, ChIP-seq, CUT&RUN or CUT&Tag assays. If you require a carrier free formulation for chromatin profiling, please contact us. Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

    BSA and Azide Free antibodies are quality control tested by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to determine antibody integrity.

    Formulation

    Supplied in 1X PBS (10 mM Na2HPO4, 3 mM KCl, 2 mM KH2PO4, and 140 mM NaCl (pH 7.8)). BSA and Azide Free.

    For standard formulation of this product see product #87501

    Storage

    Store at -20°C. This product will freeze at -20°C so it is recommended to aliquot into single-use vials to avoid multiple freeze/thaw cycles. A slight precipitate may be present and can be dissolved by gently vortexing. This will not interfere with antibody performance.

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    MIF (E7T1W) Rabbit mAb (BSA and Azide Free) recognizes endogenous levels of total MIF protein. Non-specific staining was observed in mouse brain by immunohistochemistry.

    Species Reactivity:

    Human, Mouse, Rat

    Source / Purification

    Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Tyr100 of human MIF protein.

    Background

    MIF (macrophage migration inhibitory factor) is a pleiotropic cytokine that stimulates pro-inflammatory, chemotactic, and growth responses in cells (1). MIF binds its cognate receptor (a CD74/CD44 complex) to activate multiple signaling pathways such as Src, ERK, MAPK, Akt, and suppress p53-induced apoptosis (2). The interaction of MIF with non-cognate chemokine receptors CXCR2 and CXCR4 promotes chemotaxis that enables recruitment of monocytes/neutrophils and T cells (3). During an innate immune response, MIF has been shown to repress the inhibitory effects of glucocorticoids on macrophages and T cells, thus promoting host inflammation and immunity (4). MIF may also play roles in the progression of other disease processes, including cancer cell proliferation and metastasis, and angiogenesis (5), atherosclerotic plaque formation following myocardial ischemia (6), and autoimmune pathogenesis (7). MIF has thus been proposed as a promising therapeutic drug target for multiple indications.
