Résumé

Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is an inflammatory and neurorendocrine mediator that counter-regulates glucocorticoid immunosuppression. MIF polymorphisms, which comprise a variant promoter microsatellite (-794 CATT ), are linked genetically to autoimmune disease severity and to glucocorticoid resistance. While invasive stimuli increase MIF expression, MIF also is upregulated by glucocorticoids, which serves as a physiologic regulator of the inflammatory responses. This study defined interactions between the MIF promoter, the glucocorticoid receptor (GR), and the transcription factor ICBP90, which binds to the promoter in a -794 CATT -length dependent manner, to regulate MIF transcription.
