Alternative names
C-X-C motif chemokine 8, Chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 8, Emoctakin, Granulocyte chemotactic protein 1, Monocyte-derived neutrophil chemotactic factor, Monocyte-derived neutrophil-activating peptide, Neutrophil-activating protein 1, Protein 3-10C, T-cell chemotactic factor
Gene names

Protein family
Belongs to the intercrine alpha (chemokine CxC) family
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)
Subcellular 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

Migration Assay: Cells expressing recombinant CXCR1 were assayed for migration through a transwell filter at various concentrations of WT IL-8. Responses are expressed as the % of total input cells.
