LEC/CCL16 ELISA Kit

This LEC/CCL16 ELISA Kit, Human is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative measurement of Human LEC/CCL16 protein in Serum . It contains recombinant Human LEC/CCL16, and antibodies raised against the recombinant protein. This ELISA kit is complete and ready-to-use.CCL16, a chemokine poorly characterized at the functional level. Human CCL16 is a member of the CC family, and its gene maps to human chromosome 17q. In the mouse, only a pseudogene has been identified to date. CCL16 is a functional ligand for CCR1, CCR2, CCR5, and CCR8. Recombinant CCL16 demonstrated chemotactic activity on human monocytes and lymphocytes. Based on the ability of human chemokines to exert activity on and bind to murine receptors, the TSA mouse adenocarcinoma cell line was transfected with human CCL16 cDNA and, in comparison with other cytokines, was shown to be the faster inducer of systemic immune response due to massive, prompt infiltration of leukocytes.
