Particularly, the direction of macrophage polarization could contribute to pathogen trapping and killing as well as tissue repair and the resolution of type 2 inflammation. This study establishes that the recombinant protein of <i>Thelazia callipaeda</i> macrophage migration inhibitory factor (<i>T.cp</i>-MIF) induces THP-1-derived macrophages to undergo M1 to M2 type dynamic polarization, ...[more]
