Human XCL1/Lymphotactin ELISA Kit EZ-Set™ (DIY Antibody Pairs) (antibody pairs and standards for assay development). Quantitate Human XCL1 in cell culture supeatants, cell lysates, serum and plasma (heparin, EDTA).
Chemotactic activity for lymphocytes but not for monocytes or neutrophils. In thymus, mediates medullary accumulation of thymic dendritic cells and contributes to regulatoy T cell development, playing a role in self-tolerance establishment.
Background
Chemokine (C motif) ligand (XCL1) is a small cytokine belonging to the XC chemokine family that is also known as lymphotactin. This gene is mapped to chromosome 1q23 by FISH. The sequence of the deduced 114-amino acid protein is most homologous to the CC chemokines CCL8 and CCL3. It is found in high levels in spleen, thymus, intestine and peripheral blood leukocytes, and at lower levels in lung, prostate gland and ovary. XCL1 induces the migration of cells expressing XCR1.
