Gene information for IL8 (Homo sapiens) (Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)

Entrez gene ID 3576 Official gene symbol IL8 Full name interleukin 8 Aliases ,CXCL8,GCP-1,GCP1,LECT,LUCT,LYNAP,MDNCF,MONAP,NAF,NAP-1,NAP1, Gene summary The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the CXC chemokine family. This chemokine is one of the major mediators of the inflammatory response. This chemokine is secreted by several cell types. It functions as a chemoattractant, and is also a potent angiogenic factor. This gene is believed to play a role in the pathogenesis of bronchiolitis, a common respiratory tract disease caused by viral infection. This gene and other ten members of the CXC chemokine gene family form a chemokine gene cluster in a region mapped to chromosome 4q.
