Protein name C-C motif chemokine 17 (CC chemokine TARC) (Small-inducible cytokine A17) (Thymus and activation-regulated chemokine)
Protein function Chemokine, which displays chemotactic activity for T lymphocytes, preferentially Th2 cells, but not monocytes or granulocytes. Therefore plays an important role in a wide range of inflammatory and immunological processes (PubMed:8702936, PubMed:
