Description   Interleukin-16 (IL-16) was originally described as Lymphocyte Chemoattractant Factor (LCF), is produced primarily by CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells and acts as a chemoattractant for lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, dendritic cells and Langerhans cells. Additionally, IL-16 has been reported to upregulate IL-2 receptor (CD25), induce progression of cells to the G(1) phase and suppresses HIV & SIV replication. Other cells which have been shown to express IL-16 are: B-cells, eosinophils, macrophages, epithelial cells, fibroblasts, microglial cells and keratinocytes. Human and Mouse IL-16 share a high degree of structural and functional similarity. Mouse IL-16 is comprised of 127 amino acids with a MW of 13.2 kDa.
