CCL18

Gene
CCL18
Protein
C-C motif chemokine 18
Organism
Homo sapiens
Length
89 amino acids
Function
Chemotactic factor that attracts lymphocytes but not monocytes or granulocytes. May be involved in B-cell migration into B-cell follicles in lymph nodes. Attracts naive T-lymphocytes toward dendritic cells and activated macrophages in lymph nodes, has chemotactic activity for naive T-cells, CD4+ and CD8+ T-cells and thus may play a role in both humoral and cell-mediated immunity responses.
Similarity
Belongs to the intercrine beta (chemokine CC) family.
Mass
