Cxcl10 - C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 10

Enables chemokine activity. Involved in several processes, including response to auditory stimulus; response to gamma radiation; and response to vitamin D. Located in extracellular space. Used to study adult respiratory distress syndrome; myocarditis; proteinuria; renovascular hypertension; and type 1 diabetes mellitus. Biomarker of brain ischemia; encephalitis; and uveitis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hepatitis B and middle cerebral artery infarction. Orthologous to human CXCL10 (C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 10).
