Description
|
Interleukin 8 (IL-8 or CXCL8) is an inflammatory chemokine of the CXC family that can be produced by a variety of cells but is predominantly studied in the context of macrophages and epithelial cells. IL-8 is a ligand for GPCRs, CXCR1 and CXCR2, and acts to recruit innate immune cells as well as induce phagocytosis. IL-8 is also able to induce angiogenesis. Human IL-8 is produced in E.coli. Recombinant human IL-8 is a non-glycosylated protein, containing 77 amino acids, with a molecular weight of 8.9 kDa.
