C-C motif chemokine 20, active (Ccl20), Recombinant, Mouse

Chemotactic factor that attracts lymphocytes and, slightly, neutrophils, but not monocytes. May be involved in formation and function of the mucosal lymphoid tissues by attracting lymphocytes and dendritic cells towards epithelial cells. {ECO:0000250}. Biological Activity: Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The biologically active determined by a chemotaxis bioassay using human CCR6 transfected murine BaF3 cells is in a concentration range of 0.1-10ng/ml.
