General description
MEC is a secreted CC chemokine expressed primarily by epithelial cells of the bronchioles, salivary gland, mammary gland and colon.  MEC signals through the CCR10 receptor and chemoattracts resting CD4, CD8 T-cells and eosinophils.  MEC contains six cysteines including the four highly conserved cysteine residues present in CC chemokines.  Recombinant human MEC is a 12.3 kDa protein containing 108 amino acid residues.
Biochem/physiol Actions

Physical form
Lyophilized with no additives.
Preparation Note
Centrifuge the vial prior to opening.  Reconstitute in water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml.  Do not vortex.  This solution can be stored at 2-8°C for up to 1 week.  For extended storage, it is recommended to further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein (example 0.1% BSA) and store in working aliquots at -20°C to -80°C.

Mucosae-associated epithelial chemokine (MEC) is a novel chemokine whose mRNA is most abundant in salivary gland, with strong expression in other mucosal sites, including colon, trachea, and mammary gland. MEC is constitutively expressed by epithelial cells; MEC mRNA is detected

Tissue-selective trafficking of memory and effector T and B lymphocytes is mediated by unique combinations of adhesion molecules and chemokines. The discovery of several related epithelial-expressed chemokines (TECK/CCL25 in small intestine, CTACK/CCL27 in skin, and MEC/CCL28 in diverse mucosal sites)

Chemokines are implicated in T-cell trafficking. We mapped the chemokine landscape in advanced stage ovarian cancer and characterized the expression of cognate receptors in autologous dendritic cell (DC)-vaccine primed T cells in the context of cell-based immunotherapy. The expression of
