| T1 |
0-115 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Molecular cloning of a novel human CC chemokine (Eotaxin-3) that is a functional ligand of CC chemokine receptor 3. |
| T2 |
116-267 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Previously, we mapped the novel CC chemokine myeloid progenitor inhibitory factor 2 (MPIF-2)/eotaxin-2 to chromosome 7q11.23 (Nomiyama, H., Osborne, L. |
| T3 |
268-362 |
Sentence |
denotes |
R., Imai, T., Kusuda, J., Miura, R., Tsui, L.-C., and Yoshie, O. (1998) Genomics 49, 339-340). |
| T4 |
363-497 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Since chemokine genes tend to be clustered, unknown chemokines may be present in the vicinity of those mapped to new chromosomal loci. |
| T5 |
498-666 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Prompted by this hypothesis, we analyzed the genomic region containing the gene for MPIF-2/eotaxin-2 (SCYA24) and have identified a novel CC chemokine termed eotaxin-3. |
| T6 |
667-790 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The genes for MPIF-2/eotaxin-2 (SCYA24) and eotaxin-3 (SCYA26) are localized within a region of approximately 40 kilobases. |
| T7 |
791-885 |
Sentence |
denotes |
By Northern blot analysis, eotaxin-3 mRNA was constitutively expressed in the heart and ovary. |
| T8 |
886-961 |
Sentence |
denotes |
We have generated recombinant eotaxin-3 in a baculovirus expression system. |
| T9 |
962-1103 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Eotaxin-3 induced transient calcium mobilization specifically in CC chemokine receptor 3 (CCR3)-expressing L1.2 cells with an EC(50) of 3 nM. |
| T10 |
1104-1207 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Eotaxin-3 competed the binding of (125)I-eotaxin to CCR3-expressing L1.2 cells with an IC(50) of 13 nM. |
| T11 |
1208-1311 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Eotaxin-3 was chemotactic for normal peripheral blood eosinophils and basophils at high concentrations. |
| T12 |
1312-1378 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Collectively, eotaxin-3 is yet another functional ligand for CCR3. |
| T13 |
1379-1491 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The potency of eotaxin-3 as a CCR3 ligand seems, however, to be approximately 10-fold less than that of eotaxin. |
| T14 |
1492-1645 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Identification of eotaxin-3 will further promote our understanding of the control of eosinophil trafficking and other CCR3-mediated biological phenomena. |
| T15 |
1646-1752 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The strategy used in this study may also be applicable to identification of other unknown chemokine genes. |
