| Research Abstract |
We investigated the role of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) on the process of fracture healing using MIF KO mice. In MIF KO mice, the mechanical properties of the fracture callus were decreased at the early stage of fracture healing, which was caused at least in part by the delay in the calcification of osteoid or the decrease in the number of osteoclasts. These were considered to be associated with decreased mRNA expression of MMP-2, MT1-MMP, Cathepsin K, and alkaline phosphatase.
