Anti-MIP-3 beta / CCL19 Antibody (Biotin) - BSA and Azide free (A282354)

Anti-MIP-3 beta / CCL19 Antibody (Biotin) - BSA and Azide free

Rabbit polyclonal antibody to MIP-3 beta / CCL19 (Biotin).

This antibody recognises human MIP-3 beta, (Macrophage Inflammatory Protein 3 beta), otherwise known as CCL19, a 77 amino acid CC chemokine expressed at high levels in the thymus and lymph nodes and to a lesser extent in the spleen, kidney, lungs, small intestine and stomach.MIP-3 beta acts as a chemoattractant for T and B lymphocytes, dendritic cells, NK cells and myeloid progenitor cells, through specific binding to CCR7, a G-protein coupled receptor known to be up-regulated by Epstein-Barr virus infected B cells and herpesvirus infected T cells. A correlation between the response to MIP-3 beta and the level of CCR7 expression and has been revealed in the maturation of dendritic cells (DCs), and increased levels of both MIP-3 beta and CCR7 expression have been shown in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and BALF cells from patients with the granulomatous disorder sarcoidosis, associated predominantly with CD4+ T lymphocyte alveolitis, and hence T cell recruitment.
