Biological Activity
Description
The CXCL16 protein has multiple functions, inducing chemotactic responses and initiating calcium mobilization. As a ligand, it binds to CXCR6/Bonzo and promotes cell signaling. CXCL16 Protein, Mouse (His) is the recombinant mouse-derived CXCL16 protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-6*His labeled tag.
Background
The CXCL16 protein exhibits multifaceted functionalities, including the induction of a robust chemotactic response and the initiation of calcium mobilization. Functioning as a ligand, it binds to CXCR6/Bonzo, thereby contributing to cellular signaling processes. Beyond its role as a chemotactic factor, CXCL16 serves as a scavenger receptor on macrophages, displaying a specific affinity for oxidized low-density lipoprotein (OxLDL). This interaction suggests its potential involvement in pathophysiological processes, particularly atherogenesis, where the recognition and clearance of OxLDL by macrophages play a crucial role. The diverse activities of CXCL16 highlight its versatility and underscore its potential implications in cellular responses and pathological conditions.
