Ccl22
Function
Chemotactic for activated T-lymphocytes. May play an important role in the collaboration of dendritic cells and B-lymphocytes with T-cells in immune responses.
Sequence Similarities
Belongs to the intercrine beta (chemokine CC) family.
Tissue Specificity
Expressed by activated splenic B-lymphocytes and dendritic cells. Low expression in lung, thymocytes, lymph node, and unstimulated splenic cells.
Cellular localization
- Secreted
