Target Details for PF4

Target: PF4 (Platelet Factor 4 (PF4))

Alternative Name: Pf4

Background:

Synonyms: Platelet factor 4, PF-4, C-X-C motif chemokine 4, Pf4, Cxcl4, Scyb4

Background: Platelet factor 4 (PF4) is a small cytokine belonging to the CXC chemokine family that is also known as chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 4 (CXCL4). By in situ hybridization, the CXCL4 gene is mapped to chromosome 4q12-q21. Its major physiologic role appears to be neutralization of heparin-like molecules on the endothelial surface of blood vessels, thereby inhibiting local antithrombin III activity and promoting coagulation. As a strong chemoattractant for neutrophils and fibroblasts, PF4 probably has a role in inflammation and wound repair.
