Allograft inflammatory factor 1, also known as AIF1, is a human gene.[1]

This gene is induced by cytokines and interferon. Its protein product is thought to be involved in negative regulation of growth of vascular smooth muscle cells, which contributes to the anti-inflammatory response to vessel wall trauma. The gene expresses three transcripts.[1]
