Human Chitinase-3-like Protein 1(YKL-40/CHI3L1)ELISA Kit

CHI3L1（也称为YKL-40）是一种由人类chitinase 3-like 1基因编码的蛋白质。CHI3L1在炎症和纤维化反应中发挥重要作用。最近的研究表明，CHI3L1与多种疾病的发病机制有关，如关节炎、哮喘、慢性阻塞性肺疾病、肝病和癌症等。此外，CHI3L1在心脏病和脑卒中等心脑血管疾病中的潜在作用也被越来越多的研究所关注。

Carbohydrate-binding lectin with a preference for chitin. Has no chitinase activity. May play a role in tissue remodeling and in the capacity of cells to respond to and cope with changes in their environment. Plays a role in T-helper cell type 2 (Th2) inflammatory response and IL-13-induced inflammation, regulating allergen sensitization, inflammatory cell apoptosis, dendritic cell accumulation and M2 macrophage differentiation. Facilitates invasion of pathogenic enteric bacteria into colonic mucosa and lymphoid organs. Mediates activation of AKT1 signaling pathway and subsequent IL8 production in colonic epithelial cells. Regulates antibacterial responses in lung by contributing to macrophage bacterial killing, controlling bacterial dissemination and augmenting host tolerance. Also regulates hyperoxia-induced injury, inflammation and epithelial apoptosis in lung.
