Abstract

Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) and interferon (IF) belong to the biological activities found in lymphocyte cultures upon stimulation with antigen or mitogen (1,2). Further, both mediators were found to appear simultaneously in the serum of mice which had been immunized with BCG (3,4). As they could not be separated on a molecular weight basis, it was concluded that both activities might be two different functions of the same molecule.
