| Calgranulin A 60B8-B Antigen | CABP-P8 | Cystic Fibrosis Antigen | Leukocyte L1 Protein Light Chain | MRP-8 Protein | MRP8 Protein | Macrophage-Related Protein-8 | Myeloid Calcium-Binding Protein P8 | S100 A8 Protein | S100A8 Protein | 60B8 B Antigen A 10.8 kD member of the S-100 family of calcium-binding proteins that can form homo- or heterocomplexes with CALGRANULIN B and a variety of other proteins. The calgranulin A/B heterodimer is kown as LEUKOCYTE L1 ANTIGEN COMPLEX. Calgranulin A is found in many cell types including GRANULOCYTES, KERATINOCYTES, and myelomonocytes, and has been shown to act as a chemotactic substance for NEUTROPHILS. Because it is present in acute inflammation but absent in chronic inflammation, it is a useful biological marker for a number of pathological conditions. |
