Abstract:Using two unique antibodies that selectively inhibit the function of CCL17 we have revealed that in order for this chemokine to function productively through CCR4 it requires concurrent interaction with two different binding sites on CCL17 [1] . CCR4 is known to interact with only one other ligand, CCL22, and the consequences of CCL17 vs CCL22 interaction with CCR4 are quite different. We have generated two antibodies, B202 and B225, which inhibit CCL17 function yet CCL22 inhibition can be mediated only by B20… Show more
