target relevance
Interleukin 8 (IL-8 )(CXCL8) is secreted primarily by macrophages and monocytes. It is one of the key mediators for inflammatory responses. IL-8 is a strong chemotractant for neutrophils and monoccytes, and promotes activation of these target cells by binding to two cell surface receptors CXCR1 and CXCR2. It is also a strong angiogenic agent, and is considered to play a role in the pathogenesis of bronchiolitis.Biotinylated CXCL8 is made using the enzymatic method, which has several advantages over chemical biotinylation methods. The attachment of biotin at a specific lysine residue is nearly 100% complete, and leads to a modified chemokine with functionalities comparable to those of the unmodified CXCL8 in migration assay. Utilizing avidin/streptavidin analogues conjugated to various fluorescent labels, biotinylated CXCL8 is useful in studies on receptor identification, distribution, chemokine binding, and other cellular assays. They serve as great tools in visualization and quantification, and can replace radioactively labeled chemokines.

Function
Chemotactic factor that mediates inflammatory response by attracting neutrophils, basophils, and T-cells to clear pathogens and protect the host from infection (PubMed:18692776, PubMed:7636208). Also plays an important role in neutrophil activation (PubMed:2145175, PubMed:9623510). Released in response to an inflammatory stimulus, exerts its effect by binding to the G-protein-coupled receptors CXCR1 and CXCR2, primarily found in neutrophils, monocytes and endothelial cells (PubMed:1840701, PubMed:1891716). G-protein heterotrimer (alpha, beta, gamma subunits) constitutively binds to CXCR1/CXCR2 receptor and activation by IL8 leads to beta and gamma subunits release from Galpha (GNAI2 in neutrophils) and activation of several downstream signaling pathways including PI3K and MAPK pathways (PubMed:11971003, PubMed:8662698).
Subellular location
Secreted.
Structure
Homodimer (PubMed:31235521). Dimer formation is disrupted by tick evasin-3 (PubMed:31235521). Interacts with TNFAIP6 (via Link domain); this interaction interferes with chemokine binding to glycosaminoglycans.
Post-translational modification
Several N-terminal processed forms are produced by proteolytic cleavage after secretion from at least peripheral blood monocytes, leukcocytes and endothelial cells. In general, IL-8(1-77) is referred to as interleukin-8. IL-8(6-77) is the most promiment form.; Citrullination at Arg-27 prevents proteolysis, and dampens tissue inflammation, it also enhances leukocytosis, possibly through impaired chemokine clearance from the blood circulation.; (Microbial infection) Cleaved by group A Streptococcus protease SpyCEP; leading to impaired neutrophil endothelial transmigration and thus increased virulence.

Data

Chemokine Induced Migration
Cells expressing recombinant CXCR1 were assayed for migration through the transwell bare filter at various concentrations of IL-8.  The response is expressed as the % of total input cells (Blue: wild type; Red: biotinylated).
