Background |
C-X-C motif chemokine 7 (CXCL7) also named Pro-Platelet basic protein (PPBP), which is a chemokine of the intercrine alpha family. CXCL7 is a 8.2 kDa protein containing 74 amino acid residues. CXCL7 is expressed by the platelets, which are activated. During vascular injury, CXCL7 controls the glucose metabolism, mitogenesis and neutrophil recruitment by the interaction with CXCR2. |
