[dendritic cell and monocyte chemokine-like protein] This protein has been identified by Pisabarro et al (2006) as a member of the CXC-Chemokines. It is structurally and functionally related to CXCL8 and CXCL14. DMC is expressed constitutively in the lung. DMC is a chemotactic protein that attracts immature dendritic cells and monocytes.
Sequence analysis shows that this protein is identical with VCC-1 [VEGF co-regulated chemokine 1]. The approved gene symbol for this protein is CXCL17.
