Function | Chemotactic for resting T-lymphocytes, and eosinophils. Has lower chemotactic activity for neutrophils but none for monocytes and activated lymphocytes. Is a strong suppressor of colony formation by a multipotential hematopoietic progenitor cell line. Binds to CCR3. |
Subcellular Location | Secreted. |
Tissue Specificity | Activated monocytes and activated T lymphocytes. |
