	RANTES	This gene is one of several chemokine genes clustered on the q-arm of chromosome 17. Chemokines form a superfamily of secreted proteins involved in immunoregulatory and inflammatory processes. The superfamily is divided into four subfamilies based on the arrangement of the N-terminal cysteine residues of the mature peptide. This chemokine, a member of the CC subfamily, functions as a chemoattractant for blood monocytes, memory T helper cells and eosinophils. It causes the release of histamine from basophils and activates eosinophils. This cytokine is one of the major HIV-suppressive factors produced by CD8+ cells. It functions as one of the natural ligands for the chemokine receptor chemokine (C-C motif) receptor 5 (CCR5), and it suppresses in vitro replication of the R5 strains of HIV-1, which use CCR5 as a coreceptor. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]

		Chemotaxis Induced by CCL5/RANTES and Neutralization by Mouse CCL5/RANTES Antibody. Recombinant Mouse CCL5/RANTES (Catalog # 478-MR) chemoattracts the BaF3 mouse pro-B cell line transfected with human CCR5 in a dose-dependent manner (orange line). The amount of cells that migrated through to the lower chemotaxis chamber was measured by Resazurin (Catalog # AR002). Chemotaxis elicited by Recombinant Mouse CCL5/RANTES (0.025 µg/mL) is neutralized (green line) by increasing concentrations of Goat Anti-Mouse CCL5/ RANTES Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF478). The ND₅₀ is typically 0.07-0.3 µg/mL.
		CCL5/RANTES in Mouse Splenocytes. CCL5/RANTES was detected in immersion fixed mouse splenocytes using Goat Anti-Mouse CCL5/RANTES Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF478) at 10 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (red; Catalog # NL001) and counterstained with DAPI (blue).
