Cytokines are a family of secreted proteins involved in immunoregulatory and inflammatory processes. The CC cytokines are proteins characterized by two adjacent cysteines. The cytokine encoded by this gene displays chemotactic activity for T lymphocytes, but not monocytes or granulocytes. The product of this gene binds to chemokine receptors CCR4 and CCR8. This chemokine plays important roles in T cell development in thymus as well as in trafficking and activation of mature T cells. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2014],Function:Caution:Was originally (PubMed:9521068) thought to be a ligand for CCR8.,Function:Chemotactic factor for T-lymphocytes but not monocytes or granulocytes. May play a role in T-cell development in thymus and in trafficking and activation of mature T-cells. Binds to CCR4.,induction:By phytohemagglutinin (PHA) in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells and by cytokines in monocytes.,online information:CCL17 entry,similarity:Belongs to the intercrine beta (chemokine CC) family.,tissue specificity:Expressed at high levels in thymus and at low levels in the lung, colon and small intestine.,Cellular Localization:Secreted.Tissue Expression:Expressed at high levels in thymus and at low levels in the lung, colon and small intestine.Research Areas:>>Cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction ; >>Viral protein interaction with cytokine and cytokine receptor ; >>Chemokine signaling pathway ; >>C-type lectin receptor signaling pathway ; >>IL-17 signaling pathway
