Chemokine (C-C motif) ligands 4, also known as CCL4, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the CCL4 gene.^[2]

Function[]

CCL4, also known as Macrophage inflammatory protein-1β (MIP-1β) is a CC chemokine with specificity for CCR5 receptors. It is a chemoattractant for natural killer cells, monocytes and a variety of other immune cells.^[3]

CCL4 is a major HIV-suppressive factor produced by CD8+ T cells.^[4]

Perforin-low memory CD8+ T cells that normally synthesize MIP-1-beta.^[5]

CCL4 is produced by: neutrophils, monocytes, B cells, T cells, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and epithelial cells.^[6]

Concentration of this chemokine has been shown to be inversely related with MicroRNA-125b. Concentration of CCL4 within the body increases with age, which may cause chronic inflammation and liver damage.^[6]^[7]

Interactions[]

CCL4 has been shown to interact with CCL3.^[8]

CCL4 binds to G protein-Coupled Receptors CCR5 and CCR8.^[6]
