METHODS FOR INHIBITING CELL PROLIFERATION BY INHIBMETHODS FOR INHIBITING CELL PROLIFERATION BY INHIBITING THE MITOGENIC ACTIVITY OF MACROPHAGE MIGRATIITING THE MITOGENIC ACTIVITY OF MACROPHAGE MIGRATION INHIBITORY FACTOR ON INHIBITORY FACTOR

摘要

This invention is directed to methods of inhibiting cell proliferation by inhibiting the mitogenic activity of macrophage migration inhibitory factor ("MIF"). Inhibitory nucleic acids directed against MIF inhibit cell growth in both cells induced by growth factors and transformed (malignant) cells that express oncogenes.
