Description
Macrophage inflammatory protein-5 (MIP-5) is a CC chemokine is expressed at high levels in liver, intestine, and in lung leukocytes. It induces chemotaxis of monocytes, T-lymphocytes and eosinophils. MIP-5 competes with MIP-1-alpha for binding to CC-Chemokine receptor CCR1, and with MCP-3 for binding to CCR3.1
