MIF detection in follicular fluid supports local granulosa production; leaves open its role in human folliculogenesis and IVF outcomes.
Observational
Wada et al. (1997) conducted an observational in Patients undergoing in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer. Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) was evaluated on MIF concentration in follicular fluid and expression in granulosa cells. Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) was identified in human follicular fluid at 80.3 +/- 4.6 ng/ml, with concentrations significantly decreasing as follicle size increased.
