The chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 1 (CXCL1) is a small cytokine belonging to the CXC chemokine family that was previously called GRO1 oncogene, GROα, KC, neutrophil-activating protein 3 (NAP-3) and melanoma growth stimulating activity, alpha (MGSA-α). In humans, this protein is encoded by the Cxcl1.[1]
Function
CXCL1 is secreted by human melanoma cells, has mitogenic properties and is implicated in melanoma pathogenesis .[2] [3]
CXCL1 is expressed by macrophages , neutrophils and epithelial cells ,[4] [5] and has neutrophil chemoattractant activity.[6] [7] CXCL1 plays a role in spinal cord development by inhibiting the migration of oligodendrocyte precursors and is involved in the processes of angiogenesis , arteriogenesis , inflammation , wound healing , and tumorigenesis .[8] [9] [10] [11] [12]
This chemokine elicits its effects by signaling through the chemokine receptor CXCR2 .[8] The gene for CXCL1 is located on human chromosome 4 amongst genes for other CXC chemokines.[13] An initial study in mice showed evidence that CXCL1 decreased the severity of multiple sclerosis and may offer a neuro-protective function.[14]
