Background	MCP 2 (Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein 2) is a chemotactic factor that attracts monocytes, lymphocytes, basophils and eosinophils. MCP 2 is important to inflammatory host responses, and is found in the highest concentration in the small intestine and peripheral blood cells. This protein is structurally related to the CXC subfamily of cytokines. Members of this subfamily are characterized by two cysteines separated by a single amino acid. By recruiting leukocytes to sites of inflammation this cytokine may contribute to tumor-associated leukocyte infiltration and to the antiviral state against HIV infection.
Synonyms	MCP-2, CCL-8, C-C motif chemokine 8, Small-inducible cytokine A8, SCYA10, SCYA8, HC14, MCP-2
Note	Centrifuge vial prior to opening!
