[smooth muscle cell chemotactic factor] also abbr. SMCF. This factor was purified from the serum-free conditioned medium of cultured baboon aortic medial smooth muscle cells as a monomeric protein of 14.5 kDa that was chemotactic for monocytes (see also: Chemotaxis). This protein is encoded by the human JE gene.
SMC-CF belongs to the family of chemotactic cytokines known as Chemokines (subgroup of CC-Chemokines). It is identical with MCP-1 (monocyte chemoattractant protein-1), MCP (monocyte chemotactic protein), HC11
