- Background
- Chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 8, also known as monocyte chemoattractant protein 2 (MCP-2), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CCL8 gene. CCL8 is a small cytokine belonging to the CC chemokine family. The CCL8 protein is produced as a precursor containing 109 amino acids, which is cleaved to produce mature CCL8 containing 75 amino acids. The gene for CCL8 is encoded by 3 exons and is located within a large cluster of CC chemokines on chromosome 17q11.2 in humans. Monocyte chemotactic protein 2 (MCP-2) is a CC chemokine that utilizes multiple cellular receptors to attract and activate human leukocytes.
- Synonyms

- Cross Reactivity
- There is no detectable cross-reactivity with other relevant proteins.
- Immunogen
- Expression system for standard: E.coli; Immunogen sequence: Q24-P99
- Tissue Specificity
- Highest expression found in the small intestine and peripheral blood cells. Intermediate levels seen in the heart, placenta, lung, skeletal muscle, thymus, colon, ovary, spinal cord and pancreas. Low levels seen in the brain, liver, spleen and prostate.
- Applications
- ELISA
- Field of Research
- Chemokines, Immunology, Innate Immunity, Macrophage/Inflammation
- Sample Type
- Cell culture supernatants, cell lysates, serum and plasma (heparin, EDTA) .
- Detection Range
- 15.6 pg/mL - 1,000 pg/mL
- Function
- Chemotactic factor that attracts monocytes, lymphocytes, basophils and eosinophils. May play a role in neoplasia and inflammatory host responses. This protein can bind heparin. The processed form MCP-2 (6-76) does not show monocyte chemotactic activity, but inhibits the chemotactic effect most predominantly of CCL7, and also of CCL2 and CCL5 and CCL8. .
