Gene nameCCL18
Protein nameC-C motif chemokine 18 (Alternative macrophage activation-associated CC chemokine 1) (AMAC-1) (CC chemokine PARC) (Dendritic cell chemokine 1) (DC-CK1) (Macrophage inflammatory protein 4) (MIP-4) (Pulmonary and activation-regulated chemokine) (Small-inducible cytokine A18) [Cleaved into: CCL18(1-68); CCL18(3-69); CCL18(4-69)]
SynonymsAMAC1
PARC
DCCK1
MIP4
SCYA18
DescriptionFUNCTION: 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. .
