[Smooth muscle cell-derived migration factor] This biochemically uncharacterized factor of 58 kDa is isolated from conditioned medium of rat and rabbit aorta. The factor stimulates the chemotactic migration of smooth muscle cells but is not mitogenic for these cells (see also: Chemotaxis). SDMF does not enhance the migration of endothelial cells from either human umbilical cord vein or rabbit retinal tissue. The factor may play a role in the migration of medial smooth muscle cells into the intima during intimal thickening in atherosclerotic tissues. The factor is not identical with
