Other Information

**Key Characteristics** CCL22 is a member of the CC chemokine family, which is characterized by the presence of two conserved cysteine residues at positions 1 and 4 of the protein sequence. This chemokine is known for its ability to bind to the CCR4 receptor, which is a specific chemokine receptor that is expressed on various immune cells, including T cells, dendritic cells, and eosinophils. CCL22 is also unique in that it can bind to the CCR7 receptor, which is expressed on naive T cells, and this interaction is thought to play a role in the migration of these cells to lymphoid organs. **Pathways and Functions** CCL22 is involved in various signaling pathways that regulate immune responses, including: 1. **Chemokine-mediated signaling pathway**: CCL22 binds to its receptors, CCR4 and CCR7, which triggers the activation of downstream signaling pathways, including the ERK/MAPK pathway and the NF-kB pathway. 2. **Cell-cell signaling**: CCL22 interacts with other chemokines and cytokines to regulate the recruitment of immune cells to sites of inflammation and injury. 3. **Cytokine signaling in immune system**: CCL22 is induced by various cytokines, including IL-4, IL-13, and TNF-alpha, and its expression is thought to play a role in the regulation of immune responses, including the differentiation of T cells and the production of cytokines. 4. **Dectin-1 mediated noncanonical NF-kB signaling**: CCL22 is also involved in the activation of the noncanonical NF-kB pathway, which is mediated by the CCR7 receptor and the dectin-1 receptor. CCL22 plays a crucial role in various physiological and pathological processes, including: 1. **Immune response**: CCL22 is involved in the recruitment of immune cells to sites of inflammation and injury, and its expression is thought to play a role in the regulation of immune responses, including the differentiation of T cells and the production of cytokines. 2. **Inflammation**: CCL22 is expressed in inflamed tissues and is thought to play a role in the recruitment of immune cells to these sites. 3. **Tissue repair**: CCL22 is also involved in the regulation of tissue repair, including the recruitment of stem cells to sites of injury. **Clinical Significance** CCL22 has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Allergic diseases**: CCL22 is thought to play a role in the pathogenesis of allergic diseases, including asthma and atopic dermatitis. 2. **Cancer**: CCL22 has been shown to be overexpressed in various types of cancer, including breast cancer and lung cancer, and its expression is thought to be associated with tumor progression and metastasis. 3. **Inflammatory diseases**: CCL22 is involved in the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease. In conclusion, CCL22 is a chemokine that plays a crucial role in the regulation of immune responses, particularly in the context of inflammation and tissue repair. Its expression is induced by various cytokines, and its binding to specific receptors, including CCR4 and CCR7, triggers the activation of downstream signaling pathways that regulate immune responses. CCL22 has been implicated in various diseases, including allergic diseases, cancer, and inflammatory diseases, and its expression is thought to play a role in the pathogenesis of these diseases.
