Impact of MIF Gene Promoter Polymorphism on F508del Cystic Fibrosis Patients

Macrophage migration Inhibitory Factor (MIF) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine sustaining the acute response to gram-negative bacteria and a regulatory role for MIF in Cystic Fibrosis has been suggested by the presence of a functional, polymorphic, four-nucleotide repeat in this gene's promoter at...
