General description

The murine homolog of ENA-78 is called LIX. LIX is a CXC chemokine that signals through the CXCR2 receptor. It is expressed in monocytes, platelets, endothelial cells, and mast cells. LIX is a chemoattractant for neutrophils. The two naturally occurring variants of LIX; LIX 1-78 (GCP-2) and LIX 9-78 (GCP-2), contain 78 and 70 amino acid residues, respectively. LIX contains the four conserved cysteine residues present in CXC chemokines, and also contains the ‘ELR′ motif common to CXC chemokine that bind to the CXCR1 and CXCR2 receptors. Recombinant murine LIX is a 7.6 kDa protein consisting of amino acid residues 9-78 of the full length LIX protein (70 amino acids).

Physical form

Lyophilized with no additives.

Reconstitution

Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. Do not vortex. This solution can be stored at 2-8°C for up to 1 week. For extended storage, it is recommended to further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein (example 0.1% BSA) and store in working aliquots at -20°C to -80°C.

The inflammatory response during allergic airway inflammation involves the recruitment of multiple leukocyte populations, including neutrophils, monocytes, lymphocytes, and eosinophils. All of these populations likely contribute to the pathology observed during repeated episodes of allergic airway inflammation. We have examined
