General Notes
Mouse anti Human CCL8 antibody, clone E07-8G5, recognizes C-C motif chemokine-8 (CCL8) also known as HC14, monocyte chemoattractant protein 2, monocytes chemotactic protein 2 and small-inducible cytokine A8. CCL8 is a member of the C-C chemokine subfamily and is an agonist for C-C chemokine receptor type 2 and CCR5 (Ge et al. 2017). Through these receptors, CCL8 is involved in the immune response by attracting monocytes, T-lymphocytes, natural killer cells, basophils, mast cells and eosinophils (Farmaki et al. 2020). Proteolytic cleavage of CCL8 to CCL8 (6-76) converts the chemokine into a potent inhibitor of C-C chemokine-induced chemotaxis (Proost et al. 1998).The purified Mouse anti Human CCL8 antibody, clone E07-8G5 (MCA6266GA) can be used as a capture antibody in a sandwich ELISA with the biotinylated Mouse anti Human CCL8 antibody, clone E09-8A1 (MCA6267B) as the detection antibody.
