C–X–C motif chemokine 10 (CXCL10) also known as interferon γ-induced protein 10kDa (IP-10) or small-inducible cytokine B10 is a cytokine belonging to the CXC chemokine family. The rhesus macaque IP-10 shares 69 %, 95 %, 74 % a.a. sequence identity with human, mouse, rat IP-10. This chemokine elicits its effects by binding to the cell […]

CXCL10 is a cytokine belonging to the CXC chemokine family. Mouse CXCL10 shares approximately 67% amino acid sequence identity with human CXCL10. CXCL10 has been shown to be a chemoattractant for activated T-lymphocytes and monocytes. It also has the effect of promoting the adhesion of T cells to endothelial cells, as well as inhibiting bone […]

Interleukin-8 (IL-8), also known as CXCL8, GCP-1, and NAP-1, is a widely expressed proinflammatory member of the CXC family of chemokines. Near its N-terminus, this 8-9 kDa chemokine contains an ELR motif which is important for its angiogenic properties. CXCL8 can associate into a homodimer or a heterodimer with CXCL4/PF4, and it can also interact […]

(C-X-C motif) ligand (CXCL)10 (CXCL10), also known as IP-10, belongs to the ELR(-) CXC subfamily chemokine. CXCL10 was originally identified as an IFN-gamma -inducible gene in monocytes, fibroblasts and endothelial cells. It has since been shown that CXCL10 mRNA is also induced by LPS, IL-1 beta, TNF alpha, IL-12 and viruses. CXCL10 was originally identified […]

Chemokine CXCL9 is a member of the CXC family and has an important role in the chemotaxis of immune cells. The mouse CXCL9 shares 75% and 88% a.a. sequence identity with human and rat CXCL9. Accumulated experimental evidence supports that monokine induced by interferon (IFN)-gamma (CXCL9), a member of CXC chemokine family and known to […]

CXCL9, a member of the alpha subfamily of chemokines that lack the ELR domain, was initially identified as a lymphokine-activated gene in mouse macrophages. Human CXCL9 was subsequently cloned using mouse MIG cDNA as a probe. The human CXCL9 cDNA encodes a 125 amino acid residue precursor protein with a 22 amino acid residue signal […]

CXCL9 is a member of the CXC family and has an important role in the chemotaxis of immune cells. The mouse CXCL9 shares 75% and 88% a.a. sequence identity with human and rat CXCL9. It is a cytokine that affects the growth, movement, or activation state of cells that participate in immune and inflammatory response […]

Interleukin-8 (IL-8), also known as CXCL8, GCP-1, and NAP-1, is a widely expressed proinflammatory member of the CXC family of chemokines. Near its N-terminus, this 8-9 kDa chemokine contains an ELR motif which is important for its angiogenic properties. IL-8/CXCL8 can associate into a homodimer or a heterodimer with CXCL4/PF4, and it can also interact […]

CXCL7 is a small cytokine which is also an isoform of Beta-Thromboglobulin or Pro-Platelet basic protein belonging to the CXC chemokine family and it is released in large amounts from platelets following their activation. The rat CXCL7 shares 58 % and 77 % a.a. sequence identity with human and mouse CXCL7. CXCL7 stimulates DNA synthesis, […]

Neutrophil Activating Peptide 2 (NAP-2), also known as Chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 7 (CXCL7) and Pro-platelet basic protein (PPBP), is a member of the CXC chemokines. NAP-2 is found in the alpha-granules of human platelets. Nap-2 / PPBP / CXCL7 is released in large amounts from platelets following their activation. Similar to other ELR domain […]
