HGNC Family | Endogenous ligands, Chemokine ligands (CCL) |
Name | chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 11 |
Description | This antimicrobial gene is one of several chemokine genes clustered on the q-arm of chromosome 17. Chemokines form a superfamily of secreted proteins involved in immunoregulatory and inflammatory processes. The superfamily is divided into four subfamilies based on the arrangement of the N-terminal cysteine residues of the mature peptide. This chemokine, a member of the CC subfamily, displays chemotactic activity for eosinophils, but not mononuclear cells or neutrophils. This eosinophil-specific chemokine is thought to be involved in eosinophilic inflammatory diseases such as atopic dermatitis, allergic rhinitis, asthma and parasitic infections.

{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\n CCL11—also known as eotaxin‐1—is a critical CC chemokine that directs the recruitment of eosinophils into inflammatory sites during Th2‐mediated immune responses.
