The Allograft Inflammatory Factor-1 (AIF-1) homologous in Hirudo medicinalis (medicinal leech) is involved in immune response during wound healing and graft rejection processes
Allograft inflammatory factor-1 (AIF-1) is a 17 kDa cytokine-inducible calcium-binding protein that in Vertebrates plays an important role in allografts immune response. Since its expression is mainly limited to the monocyte/macrophage lineage, it was recently suggested that it could play a key role...
