Chemokine CCL18

Preferred Label : Chemokine CCL18;

MeSH definition : A CC-type chemokine highly expressed in the lungs, lymph nodes, placenta, and bone marrow; it is also expressed by DENDRITIC CELLS in the GERMINAL CENTER, and peripheral blood MACROPHAGES. It functions as a chemotactic factor that specifically attracts LYMPHOCYTES, especially B-Cells, into lymph node follicles, and naive T-cells towards dendritic cells and activated T-cells. It does not attract MONOCYTES or GRANULOCYTES.;

MeSH synonym : CCL18, Chemokine; Pulmonary and Activation-Regulated Chemokine; Pulmonary and Activation Regulated Chemokine; MIP-4 Protein; MIP 4 Protein; AMAC-1 Protein; AMAC 1 Protein; Macrophage Inflammatory Protein 4;
