Tissue Specificity | Detected in trachea, stomach, lung and skeletal muscle. Detected in intestine and in normal and asthmatic lung (at protein level). Breast tumors showed 3- to 24-fold up-regulation. |
Post Translational Modifications | Likely to undergo an endoproteolytic process to form a four-cysteine-containing mature peptide with a canonical CXC chemokine scaffold after secretion. |
Function | Chemokine that acts as a chemoattractant for monocytes, macrophages and dendritic cells. Plays a role in angiogenesis and possibly in the development of tumors. Acts as an anti-inflammatory in the stomach. May play a role in the innate defense against infections. Activates the C-X-C chemokine receptor GPR35 to induce a rapid and transient rise in the level of intracellular calcium ions. 4-Cys CXCL17: Seems to exhibit much higher chemoattractant potency on monocytes and macrophages than 6-Cys CXCL17. |
