C-C motif chemokine 14 (HCC-1)

Target (abbrv.) HCC-1
Target (full name) C-C motif chemokine 14
Somalogic ID (Sequence ID) SL003329 (2900-53_3)
Entrez Gene Symbol CCL14
UniProt ID Q16627
UniProt Comment
  • Has weak activities on human monocytes and acts via receptors that also recognize MIP-1 alpha. It induced intracellular Ca(2+) changes and enzyme release, but no chemotaxis, at concentrations of 100-1,000 nM, and was inactive on T-lymphocytes, neutrophils, and eosinophil leukocytes. Enhances the proliferation of CD34 myeloid progenitor cells. The processed form HCC-1(9-74) is a chemotactic factor that attracts monocytes eosinophils, and T-cells and is a ligand for CCR1, CCR3 and CCR5.

C-C motif chemokine 23 (MPIF-1)

Target (abbrv.) MPIF-1
Target (full name) C-C motif chemokine 23
Somalogic ID (Sequence ID) SL003302 (2913-1_2)
Entrez Gene Symbol CCL23
UniProt ID P55773
UniProt Comment
  • Shows chemotactic activity for monocytes, resting T-lymphocytes, and neutrophils, but not for activated lymphocytes. Inhibits proliferation of myeloid progenitor cells in colony formation assays. This protein can bind heparin. Binds CCR1. CCL23(19-99), CCL23(22-99), CCL23(27-99), CCL23(30-99) are more potent chemoattractants than the small-inducible cytokine A23.

Target (abbrv.) PARC
Target (full name) C-C motif chemokine 18
Somalogic ID (Sequence ID) SL003323 (3044-3_2)
Entrez Gene Symbol CCL18
UniProt ID P55774
UniProt Comment
  • Chemotactic factor that attracts lymphocytes but not monocytes or granulocytes. May be involved in B-cell migration into B-cell follicles in lymph nodes. Attracts naive T-lymphocytes toward dendritic cells and activated macrophages in lymph nodes, has chemotactic activity for naive T-cells, CD4+ and CD8+ T-cells and thus may play a role in both humoral and cell-mediated immunity responses.

Target (full name) C-C motif chemokine 3
Somalogic ID (Sequence ID) SL000519 (3040-59_1)
Entrez Gene Symbol CCL3
UniProt ID P10147
UniProt Comment
  • Monokine with inflammatory and chemokinetic properties. Binds to CCR1, CCR4 and CCR5. One of the major HIV-suppressive factors produced by CD8+ T-cells. Recombinant MIP-1-alpha induces a dose-dependent inhibition of different strains of HIV-1, HIV-2, and simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV).

All locus annotations are based on the sentinel SNP (rs41341749) and 4 proxy variant(s) that is/are in linkage disequilibrium r2 ≥ 0.8. Linkage disequilibrium is based on data from the 1000 Genomes Project, phase 3 version 5, European population and was retrieved using SNiPA's Block Annotation feature.

Increased CCL14 may induce decrease in CCL23 protein levels.

This locus includes two replicated cis-associations, with C-C motif chemokine 14 (CCL14, aka HCC1) and C-C motif chemokine 23 (CCL23, aka MPIF-1). Two further associations with CCL18 and CCL3 did not have sufficient replication power and were not replicated – note that Locus 87 harbours replicated cis-QTLs for these two chemokines. The association of rs41341749 with CCL14 and CCL23 has opposite direction, and the strength of association for the ratio of both increases by 35 orders of magnitude (p-gain=2.3×1035 in KORA, replicated 7.5×1012 in QMDiab). Note that there are multiple C-C motif chemokines encoded at this locus, including CCL3/4/5/7/14/15/16/18/23. SNiPA annotation identifies several variants that are tagged by rs41341749 and that regulate CCL14.
