Brief description Macrophage inhibitory cytokine-1 (MIC-1) participates in cancer, stroke and heart attack. Studies show that measurement of MIC-1 in blood and cancer tissue might be useful to detect the development of cancer and determine whether it will spread. Also, MIC-1 measurement can identify people who are at risk of dying of cancer, heart attack and stroke. This study will show how MIC-1 may be used to prevent, diagnose and help treat these conditions and reduce healthcare costs.
