Neutrophil activating peptide 2 (NAP-2), also known as CXCL7, is a member of the CXC family of chemokines. NAP-2 is a carboxyl-terminal fragment produced by proteolytic cleavage of the platelet basic protein (PBP). NAP-2 is released from platelets and binds to the receptors CXCR1 and CXCR2 to chemoattract and activate neutrophils during inflammatory events.
