MIP-1β (macrophage inflammatory protein 1β) is a member of the CC chemokine (cysteine-cysteine) family, and is produced by monocytes and macrophages. This protein exists as a homodimer. It acts as a ligand to the GPCR (G-protein coupled receptor) called CCR5 (CC chemokine receptor 5).
Anti-MIP-1β antibody produced in chicken is suitable for indirect ELISA and western blotting analysis at a dilution of 1:500, for tissue or cell staining at a dilution of 1:200.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 4 (CCL4) is a principal regulator of macrophage migration and signals through CCR5. CCR5 is linked to several protein kinases including the src kinase Lyn, PI3K, focal adhesion related kinase Pyk2 and members of the MAPK family that help in regulating macrophage chemotaxis. CCL4 is released at the site of inflammation in sarcoidosis.

Sarcoidosis is a granulomatous disease with an increased accumulation of T cells in lungs as a result of on-site proliferation and chemotaxis induced by chemokines. It has already been demonstrated that CCL3-5 levels were increased in BAL fluid of sarcoidosis

Chemokines comprise a family of proteins that function in the immune response to recruit leukocytes to sites of infection. This recruitment is believed to be carried out by the establishment of a chemokine gradient by the binding of chemokines to

Tuberculosis remains one of the top three leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, complicated by the emergence of drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains and high rates of HIV coinfection. It is important to develop new antimycobacterial drugs and immunomodulatory therapeutics

Chemokines (chemotactic cytokines) comprise a large family of proteins that recruit and activate leukocytes, giving chemokines a major role in both immune response and inflammation-related diseases. The poxvirus-encoded viral CC chemokine inhibitor (vCCI) binds to many CC chemokines with high
