Sentence examples for of the mif from inspiring English sources

In addition, silencing of the MIF gene or inhibition of MIF activity by ISO-1 led to an attenuation of LC3-II conversion, as measured by western blotting.

We have designed several small molecules that fit into the site critical for the proinflammatory action of MIF, and confirmed the interaction by the crystal structure of the MIF complex.

The identity of the MIF producing cells in the tumour stroma is not clear, although MIF is known to be produced at a high level by many cell types including macrophages, neutrophils and endothelial cells (Calandra and Roger, 2003).

The importance of MIF as a key mediator of systemic inflammatory responses is supported by the observation that deletion of the MIF gene or neutralization of the protein induces protection from LPS-induced shock [ 3].

Finally, we found a mode allowing the formation of the MIF consisting of well-separated silver nanoislands on the surface of unpoled slides, and, at the same time, there was no formation of the MIF in the poled regions of the glass surface.

Furthermore, in FGC system, increasing surface-layer thicknesses will improve its durability, and when its surface-layer reaches a certain thickness, its enhancement level is close to that of the MIF single-layer system.

This in turn is the strength of the MIF-based descriptors since these descriptors characterize the geometry of hot spots on the protein and are independent of sequence information.

Fig. 5.B shows the time course of the MIF-II activity.

The stained band corresponds to the position of the MIF-II thereby demonstrating the antibody has high immunological specificity only for MIF-II.

Various assay procedures have been used to study the accurate level of the MIF-II activity on sperm forward motility as well as its velocity.

A unit of activity of the MIF-II was defined as the amount of the factor, which inhibited FM in 10% of the cells under the standard assay conditions.
