Eotaxin, also named MPIF-2 and Ckbeta6, is a novel CC chemokine recently identified. It is produced by activated monocytes and T lymphocytes. Eotaxin-2 selectively chemoattracts cells expressing CCR3 including eosinophils, basophils, Th2 T cells, mast cells, and certain subsets of dendritic cells. Additionally, Eotaxin-2 inhibits the proliferation of multipotential hematopoietic progenitor cells. Mouse Eotaxin-2 cDNA encodes a 119 amino acid (aa) residue precursor protein that shares approximately 58% aa sequence identity with human Eotaxin-2. Functionally, Eotaxin-2 is most closely related to Eotaxin/CCL11 and Eotaxin-3/CCL26.
