Publisher Summary Most members of chemokines are reported to be chemotactic for
leukocytes and are produced in response to proinflaminatory agents and designated as
inducible inflammatory mediators that dictate leukocyte activation and chemotaxis to the site
of inflammation. Gene targeting studies reveal that MIP-lα is required for the pathogenesis of
coxackievirus-induced myocarditis and influenza virus-induced pneumonitis. However,
some chemokines are thought to have additional functions, including hematopoiesis and …
