P1G-MIF-expressing mice show an intermediate phenotype in skin tumorigenesis. (A) Immunohistochemical evidence of equivalent production of P1G-MIF and native MIF in skin of mifP1G/P1G and mif+/+ mice (magnification, ×400). (B) Tumor incidence in one-stage benzo[α]pyrene-induced skin tumorigenesis (n = 32 to 36 mice per group). Kaplan-Meier analysis and a log rank test yield the following: P < 0.001 for mif/ versus mif+/+ mice; P < 0.029 for mifP1G/P1G versus mif+/+ mice; P not significant for mif/ versus mifP1G/P1G mice. (C) Tumors per mouse in one-stage benzo[α]pyrene-induced skin tumorigenesis. Statistics using the general linear model yields the following: *, P < 0.001 for mif/ versus mif+/+ mice, P < 0.011 for mifP1G/P1G versus mif+/+ mice, and P < 0.001 for mif/ versus mifP1G/P1G mice.
