CD74 is a survival receptor on colon epithelial cells

Figure 2 In vitro stimulation with MIF induces CEC survival. CEC from C57BL/6 mice were incubated in the presence or absence of MIF (400 ng/mL). A: After 17 h, cells were collected and analyzed for survival by annexin and propidium iodide staining; B: Graphs summarizing the results of four independent experiments. MIF: Migration inhibitory factor; PBS: Phosphate buffered saline.
