Anti-GRO gamma/CXCL3 Antibody Picoband® Fluoro647 Conjugated

Chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 3 (CXCL3), also known as GRO protein gamma (GROg) and macrophage inflammatory protein-2-beta (MIP2b), is a small cytokine belonging to the CXC chemokine family. It is mapped to 14p2. CXCL3 controls migration and adhesion of monocytes and mediates its effects on its target cell by interacting with a cell surface chemokine receptor. It has been shown that CXCL3 regulates cell autonomously the migration of the precursors of cerebellar granule neurons toward the internal layers of cerebellum, during the morphogenesis of cerebellum. CXCL3 also play fundamental roles in the development, homeostasis and it has effects on cells of the central nervous system as well as on endothelial cells involved in angiogenesis or angiostasis.

E. coli-derived mouse GRO gamma recombinant protein (Position: S32-S100) . Mouse GRO gamma shares 60.6% and 90.6% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with human and rat GRO gamma, respectively.

Ligand for CXCR2. Has chemotactic activity for neutrophils. May play a role in inflammation and exert its effects on endothelial cells in an autocrine fashion. .
