Biological Activity

Description

CTACK/CCL27 Protein, Human is a CC chemokine that binds to the chemokine receptor CCR10, attracts skin-associated memory T lymphocytes, mediates lymphocyte homing to skin sites, and plays a key role in skin inflammation. CTACK/CCL27 Protein, Human a recombinant human CTACK/CCL27 (F25-G112) protein expressed by E. coli[1][2].

Background

CCL27, also known as skin T-cell attracting chemokine (CTACK), is a CC chemokine located on chromosome 9 in the human genome.CCL27 is abundantly expressed in basal keratin-forming cells. Expression is lowest in basal suprabasal keratin-forming cells of normal skin; however, they exhibit stronger CCL27 expression in lesions of human AD, contact dermatitis, and psoriasis. In addition, CCL27 is present in the dermal extracellular matrix (ECM) of the epidermal plexus, fibroblasts and endothelial cells, especially in inflamed skin . By binding to chemokine receptor 10 (CCR10), CCL27 regulates inflammation by promoting the migration of lymphocytes into the skin. CCL27 contributes to tissue-restricted leukocyte trafficking by exhibiting high receptor and tissue specificity, and induces inflammation by promoting lymphocyte migration into the skin.CCL27 induces expression of cultured normal human keratinocytes (NHEK) via the pro-inflammatory factors TNFα and IL-1[1][2].

In Vivo

CCL27(human, intradermal injection, 0.2, 2.0 or 20 µg) induces the recruitment of lymphocytes and increases T lymphocytes as well as CD3+ lymphocytes in BALB/c mice[3].

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 20 mM PB, 500 mM NaCl, pH 7.5.

Endotoxin Level

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

Reconstitution

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Storage & Stability

Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Shipping
