Anti-C-C chemokine receptor type 4 CCR4 Antibody Picoband® fluoro550 Vervoeging

CCR4, C-C chemokine receptor type 4 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CCR4 gene. CCR4 has also recently been designated CD194 (cluster of differentiation 194) . The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the G protein-coupled receptor family. It is a receptor for the following CC chemokines. The CCR4 gene is mapped to chromosome 3. Chemokines are a group of small structurally related proteins that regulate cell trafficking of various types of leukocytes. The chemokines also play fundamental roles in the development, homeostasis, and function of the immune system, and they have effects on cells of the central nervous system as well as on endothelial cells involved in angiogenesis or angiostasis.

High affinity receptor for the C-C type chemokines CCL17/TARC and CCL22/MDC. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G (i) proteins which activate a phosphatidylinositol- calcium second messenger system. Could play a role in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) -induced endotoxic shock. In the CNS, could mediate hippocampal-neuron survival. .
