Recombinant Human I-TAC / CXCL11

Interferon-inducible T cell alpha chemoattractant (I-TAC), or CXCL11, is expressed at high levels in leukocytes, pancreas, and liver cells. I-TAC gene expression is induced by interferons alpha (IFN-a), beta (IFN-ß), and gamma (IFN-?). I-TAC is the dominant ligand known to bind the chemokine receptor CXCR3, thus acting as a stronge agonist. I-TAC functions as a chemoattractant for interleukin 2 (IL-2)-activated T cells.
