CCL24 ( English CC chemokine ligand 24 ) is a cytokine belonging to the family of the C-C chemokines .

properties

CCL24 is involved in inflammatory processes. It binds to CCR3 and is chemotactic for eosinophils , resting T cells and, to a lesser extent, neutrophils . CCL24 is involved in the development of acetylsalicylic acid- induced asthma .
