Target Background | Epithelial cellderived neutrophilactivating peptide (ENA78) also known as C-X-C motif chemokine 5(CXCL5), is a small cytokine belonging to the CXC chemokine family. It is produced following stimulation of cells with the inflammatory cytokines interleukin-1 or tumor necrosis factor-alpha. Expression of CXCL5 has also been observed in eosinophils, and can be inhibited with the type II interferon, IFN-γ. This chemokine stimulates the chemotaxis of neutrophils possessing angiogenic properties. Full length CXCL5 (78 aa) is trimmed at the Nterminal end by cathepsin G and chymotrypsin to ENA-74 (74 aa) and ENA-70 (70aa), with the shortened forms showing increased potency relative to full length CXCL5. CXCL5can signal through the CXCR2 receptor. |
