CCL5 Antibody recognizes C-C motif chemokine ligand 5 (CCL5), commonly known as RANTES, a secreted signaling protein involved in leukocyte recruitment and inflammatory responses. RANTES stands for Regulated on Activation, Normal T Cell Expressed and Secreted, reflecting its association with activated T lymphocytes. CCL5 belongs to the CC chemokine family and attracts monocytes, memory T cells, eosinophils, and natural killer cells. The RANTES Polyclonal Antibody targets a protein involved in coordinating innate and adaptive immune responses.
The human CCL5 gene is located on chromosome 17q12 and encodes a 91-amino-acid precursor with a calculated molecular weight of approximately 10 kDa. Cleavage of its signal peptide produces a mature chemokine of approximately 8 kDa. Conserved cysteine residues contribute to the characteristic CC chemokine structure, while interactions with cell-surface glycosaminoglycans help establish gradients that direct immune cell migration.
CCL5 signals primarily through the G protein-coupled receptors CCR1, CCR3, and CCR5. Receptor activation regulates chemotaxis, cytoskeletal rearrangement, cellular adhesion, and immune cell activation. These activities contribute to leukocyte trafficking during infection, inflammation, and tissue repair. CCL5 also participates in antiviral immunity through its interaction with CCR5, a coreceptor used by certain HIV-1 strains for cellular entry.
CCL5 expression increases in response to inflammatory cytokines and immune activation signals. Elevated levels have been associated with autoimmune disorders, chronic inflammation, infectious diseases, and cancer. Within tumor microenvironments, CCL5 influences immune cell infiltration, macrophage recruitment, and interactions between malignant and stromal cells. Depending on the biological context, these effects may support antitumor immunity or contribute to tumor progression. The RANTES Polyclonal Antibody is relevant to research examining chemokine signaling and inflammatory regulation.
Research involving CCL5 provides insight into T cell activation, macrophage migration, antiviral responses, and immune cell communication. Understanding its interactions with chemokine receptors contributes to studies of inflammatory disease mechanisms and immune regulation. NSJ Bioreagents offers antibodies targeting chemokines and other mediators of immune signaling. A CCL5 Antibody provides a research tool for examining RANTES expression, leukocyte recruitment, and chemokine receptor signaling.
Explore our Immunology Antibodies collection for additional antibodies targeting chemokines, cytokines, immune receptors, and proteins involved in inflammatory signaling.
Optimal dilution of the CCL5 Antibody / RANTES Polyclonal Antibody should be determined by the researcher.
Amino acids 26-91 of human C-C motif chemokine 5 were used as the immunogen for the CCL5 antibody.
After reconstitution, the CCL5 antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20oC. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
