| Biochem/physiol Actions: | IP-10 (interferon-γ-inducible protein-10) protein is a proinflammatory chemokine which controls immune responses. It interacts with chemokine receptor 3 (CXCR3) and activates leukocytes including T cells, eosinophils, monocytes and natural killer cells. Mutations in IP-10 are associated with rheumatoid arthritis. In humans with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection or HCV/human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) co-infection, IP-10 is linked with obesity and insulin resistance. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | IP-10, a chemoattractant for activated T lymphocytes, is a potent inhibitor of angiogenesis and displays thymus-dependent anti-tumor effects. |
| General description: | The gene for C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 10 (CXCL10), also known as interferon-γ-inducible protein-10 (IP-10), is mapped to human chromosome 4q21.1. IP-10 is secreted by monocytes, neutrophils, endothelial cells, keratinocytes, fibroblasts, mesenchymal cells, dendritic cells, astrocytes and hepatocytes. It is a polypeptide of 78 amino acids. Human IP-10 shows 67% amino acid homology to mouse CRG-2. |
