Decreased MIF expression associated with bevacizumab-resistant glioblastoma. (a) Microarray analysis of U87-BevR relative to U87-BevS (n=3/group) was performed to assess tumor-secreted factors known to influence macrophages, with only two changes being statistically significant (*raw P<0.001): upregulated CCL2 and downgregulated MIF. (b) qPCR revealed reduced CCL2 and MIF transcript (P<0.05 each), while (c) Immunoblotting revealed reduced CCL2 and MIF protein in U87-BevR xenografts (n=5) compared to U87-BevS intracranial xenografts (n=5). (d) Immuoblotting revealed reduced MIF in bevacizumab-resistant patient glioblastomas (n=4) compared to bevacizumab-naive patient glioblastomas (n=4).
