(Redirected from CXCL10)

IP-10 is Interferon gamma (INF-γ) inducible protein 10, and is also known as C-X-C Motif Chemokine Ligand 10 or CXCL10.[1] IP-10 is a chemokine, and important for recruiting natural killer cells to the myocardium, and for limiting viral duplication in murine (mice/rodent) coxsackievirus infection.[2]

Notable studies[edit | edit source]

This study found "compelling evidence" of the role of several cytokines/chemokines in the physiological and cognitive pathology in a group of patients with chronic fatigue syndrome, although these patients were selected using the Oxford criteria, which includes many patients with chronic fatigue not caused by ME/CFS.
