Description: The human MIG Instant ELISA is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative detection of of human MIG. The human MIG Instant ELISA is for research use only. Not for diagnostic or therapeutic procedures.
MIG (monokine induced by interferon gamma) belongs to the subfamily of the CXC chemokines. The main function of this soluble protein is the recruitment of leukocytes to sites of infection and inflammation.
MIG binds to a receptor which is selectively expressed in activated T lymphocytes and therefore is a critical mediator of T-lymphocyte migration in T-cell dependent immune responses. This displays antiviral activity. Like IP-10 it binds to chemokine receptor CXCR3 in Th1 immune reactions and exhibits inhibitory functions in neovascularization, is an inhibitor for hematopoietic progenitor cells and shows anti-tumor effects.
Furthermore there are indications that MIG plays an important role in mediating cell recruitment and activation necessary for inflammation and the repair of tissue damage e.g. in liver diseases.
