Antigen Details
- Structure
- Chemokine
- Distribution
-
CCL21 is highly expressed in HEV of lymph nodes and Peyer's patches. Also, it is expressed in the T cell zones of lymph nodes, in Peyer's patches by reticular cells, and in spleen by stromal cells. CCL21 is expressed by endothelial cells in lymphatic venules.
- Function
- CCL21 chemoattracts na?ve T cells and maturing dendritic cells (DCs) into T zones of secondary lymphoid organs. CCL21 and CCL19 chemoattract antigen-engaged B cells to the boundary of B and T zones to interact with T-helper cells. CCL19 and CCL21 inhibit apoptosis in DCs.
- Interaction
- Thymocytes, activated T cells, na?ve CD4 and CD8, mature DCs, fibroblast-like synoviocytes of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA)
