Recombinant Human Interleukin-8/IL-8 (C-6His)

Source: Human Cells. MW :10.1kD. Recombinant Human C-X-C motif chemokine 8 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Glu21-Ser99 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus. Interleukin-8 (IL-8) belongs to the neutrophil-specific CXC family of chemokines. It is one of the initial cytokines released from a variety of cell types, including T cells, endothelial cells and fibroblasts, in response to an inflammatory stimulus and acts by recruiting neutrophils, T-cells and basophils to the site of inflammation. Elevated Interleukin-8 levels are associated with the onset of a variety of disease states.
