Background CCL5, also known as Regulated on Activation, Normal T-cell Expressed and Secreted (RANTES), is a proinflammatory chemokine that induces migration and activation of leukocytes, and is also implied in HIV infection. CCL5 binds to cell surface receptors CCR1, CCR3, CCR4, and CCR5. Its biological effects on leukocyte activation and HIV infections is dependent upon concentration and on the binding of cell surface glycosaminoglycans.

Biological Activity CCL5
Biological Function Chemoattractant for blood monocytes, memory T-helper cells and eosinophils. Causes the release of histamine from basophils and activates eosinophils. May activate several chemokine receptors including CCR1, CCR3, CCR4 and CCR5. One of the major HIV-suppressive factors produced by CD8+ T-cells.
