Yak-Derived CXCL14 Activates the Pro-Inflammatory Response of Macrophages and Inhibits the Proliferation and Migration of HepG2.

ABSTRACT: CXCL14 (C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 14) is an important chemokine involved in infection and immunity and plays an important role in a variety of immune-related diseases. The 446 bp cDNA sequence of the CXCL14 gene in yaks was obtained. Additionally, the prokaryotic expression vector of the CXCL14 protein with a molecular weight of 27 kDa was successfully constructed and expressed. The proliferation activities and migration abilities of spleen macrophages were significantly inhibited after treatment with the CXCL14 protein at different concentrations (1, 10 and 20 μg/mL) (p < 0.05). Furthermore, the expressions of pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β), interleukin 6 (IL6), interleukin 8 (IL8) and interferon-α (TNF-α) were sig
