  • Product overview

    Macrophage Inflammatory Protein 3 alpha is a CC chemokine with a selective chemotactic activity for lymphocytes and dendritic cells. Macrophage Inflammatory Protein 3 alpha is expressed predominantly in lymph nodes, appendix, peripheral blood leukocytes, fetal liver, fetal lung and several cell lines. It plays an important role in the regulation of DC trafficking, and recruitment and activation of T cells.

     

    ab100599 ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit is an in vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative measurement of human Macrophage Inflammatory Protein 3 alpha in serum, plasma and cell culture supernatants.

     

    This assay employs an antibody specific for human Macrophage Inflammatory Protein 3 alpha coated on a 96-well plate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and Macrophage Inflammatory Protein 3 alpha present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. The wells are washed and biotinylated anti-human Macrophage Inflammatory Protein 3 alpha antibody is added. After washing away unbound biotinylated antibody, HRP-conjugated streptavidin is pipetted to the wells. The wells are again washed, a TMB substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of Macrophage Inflammatory Protein 3 alpha bound. The Stop Solution changes the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.

Properties

  • FunctionChemotactic factor that attracts lymphocytes and, slightly, neutrophils, but not monocytes. Inhibits proliferation of myeloid progenitors in colony formation assays. May be involved in formation and function of the mucosal lymphoid tissues by attracting lymphocytes and dendritic cells towards epithelial cells. C-terminal processed forms have been shown to be equally chemotactically active for leukocytes. Possesses antibacterial activity E.coli ATCC 25922 and S.aureus ATCC 29213.
  • Tissue specificityExpressed predominantly in the liver, lymph nodes, appendix, peripheral blood lymphocytes, and fetal lung. Low levels seen in thymus, prostate, testis, small intestine and colon.
  • Sequence similaritiesBelongs to the intercrine beta (chemokine CC) family.
  • Post-translational
    modifications
    C-terminal processed forms which lack 1, 3 or 6 amino acids are produced by proteolytic cleavage after secretion from peripheral blood monocytes.
  • Cellular localizationSecreted.
