Descriptions:Galectin-8 (Gal-8) is a lectin family member and is one of the tandem repeat-type galectins containing two carbohydrate recognition domains (CRD) connected by a linker region in a single peptide chain. The CRD is responsible for β-galactoside binding, and the binding partners for galectin-8 have been identified, including CD44 and a subset of integrins. Galectin-8 and integrins form complexes, subsequently leading to phosphorylation of paxillin and focal adhesion kinase (FAK), which activates signal pathways including MAPK-ERK and PI3K-AKT pathways. Galectin-8 is constitutively presented in the Liver, kidney, cardiac muscle, lung, and brain. Galectin-8 serves as an immunosuppressive protective role against autoimmune CNS inflammation, regulating the balance of Th17 and Th1 polarization.

Descriptions:Tumor Necrosis Factor Beta (TNF beta) or lymphotoxin-alpha (LT-α) is a 19 kDa tumor necrosis factor family protein with 171 amino acid residues. TNF beta is mainly expressed from lymphocytes, and mediates variety of inflammatory, immunostimulatory, and antiviral responses. TNF beta also involves development in secondary lymphoid organs. It is cytotoxic for different tumor cells in vitro and in vivo.

Descriptions:C-X-C motif chemokine 4 (CXCL4) also named platelet factor 4 (PF4), which is a chemokine of the intercrine alpha family. CXCL4 is a 8kDa protein containing 70 amino acid residues. CXCL4 is produced by the activated platelets which plays an important role in immune responses. CXCL4 inhibit the cell proliferation, platelet aggregation and wound repair. CXCL4 also suppresses the hematopoiesis.

Descriptions:C-C Motif Chemokine Ligand 4 (CCL4) is a 7.66 kDa cytokine with 69 amino acid residues. CCL4, also named macrophage inflammatory protein-1β (MIP-1β), is mainly secreted from neutrophils, monocytes, B cells, T cells, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and epithelial cells. In addition, CCL4 participates in immune responses, including recruitment of immune cells like lymphocytes, monocytes, and leukocytes, response to IL-1 and IFNγ, and production of TNF when CCL4 binds to CCR5.

Descriptions:C-X-C motif chemokine 3 (CXCL3) also named Growth-regulated oncogene gamma (GROγ), which is a chemokine of the intercrine alpha family. CXCL3 is a 8 kDa protein containing 73 amino acid residues. During inflammation, CXCL3 is activated by the TNF and IL-1 which mediates the monocytes migration and adhesion by targeting the CXCR2. CXCL3 activates the JNK activity which induce the cell differentiation.

Descriptions:Transforming Growth Factors alpha (TGF-α) is a 5.68 kDa member of the epidermal Growth Factors with 51 amino acid residues. TGF-α is mainly expressed from brain, skin, epithelial cell (pancreatic endocrine cells, urothelial cells, oligodendrocyte precursor cells, etc.). TGF-α is a regulator of cell proliferation and differentiation via bind to the EGFR and to act synergistically with TGF β. TGF-α also associates with myriad forms of cancer.

Descriptions:Interleukin 9 (IL-9) is a pleiotropic cytokine that had pleiotropic functions in the immune system, has a molecular mass of 14.5 kDa. The major source of IL-9 is T lymphocytes. It is secreted by CD4+ helper cells that acts as a regulator of a variety of hematopoietic cells.
