Gene Summary |
Enables chemokine activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including blood vessel morphogenesis; endothelial to hematopoietic transition; and hematopoietic stem cell differentiation. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including eye; heart; liver; pleuroperitoneal region; and ventral wall of dorsal aorta. Used to study vitamin D-dependent rickets. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including acute pyelonephritis; autoimmune uveitis; gastritis (multiple); liver disease (multiple); and lung disease (multiple). Orthologous to human CXCL8 (C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 8). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025] |
