Other Information

**Key Characteristics** CKLF is a small, secreted protein that belongs to the chemokine family. It is characterized by its ability to bind to specific receptors, leading to the activation of downstream signaling pathways. CKLF is highly expressed in various cell types, including hematopoietic cells, smooth muscle fibers, and immune cells such as T cells and macrophages. The protein is also secreted by cells, allowing it to exert its effects on surrounding tissues. **Pathways and Functions** CKLF's primary function is to regulate cell migration and chemotaxis, particularly in the context of immune responses. It binds to specific receptors, such as CXCR1 and CXCR2, which are expressed on the surface of various immune cells. This binding triggers the activation of signaling pathways, including the MAPK and PI3K/AKT pathways, leading to the regulation of cell migration, proliferation, and differentiation. CKLF has also been shown to regulate the function of T cells, macrophages, and dendritic cells, which are essential components of the immune system. In addition to its role in immune responses, CKLF has also been implicated in various other biological processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival. It has been shown to regulate the expression of genes involved in these processes, including genes involved in cell cycle regulation and apoptosis. **Clinical Significance** CKLF has been implicated in various diseases, including cancer, autoimmune disorders, and inflammatory conditions. Its expression is altered in various types of cancer, including leukemia, lymphoma, and breast cancer. CKLF has also been shown to play a role in autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis, where it regulates the function of immune cells and promotes inflammation. Furthermore, CKLF has been implicated in inflammatory conditions, such as atherosclerosis and inflammatory bowel disease. Its expression is increased in these conditions, where it promotes inflammation and tissue damage. In conclusion, CKLF is a multifunctional protein that plays a crucial role in various biological processes, including immune responses, cell migration, and proliferation. Its clinical significance is evident in its role in various diseases, including cancer, autoimmune disorders, and inflammatory conditions. Further research is needed to fully understand the mechanisms by which CKLF regulates these processes and to explore its potential as a therapeutic target. **Significantly expressed cells** - Polychromatophilic erythroblast - Hematopoietic oligopotent progenitor cell - Embryonic stem cell - Smooth muscle fiber of ileum - Peripheral blood mononuclear cell - Ileal goblet cell - Orthochromatic erythroblast - CD8-positive, alpha-beta regulatory T cell - Stromal cell of bone marrow - CD4-positive, alpha-beta memory T cell - CD45RO-positive **Proteins** - CKLF_HUMAN (Chemokine-like factor) - Q5BJH6_HUMAN **References** [Insert references to relevant research articles] Note: The provided information is based on the given data and is intended to provide an expert discussion on the gene CKLF.
