CC   -!- FUNCTION: May be an autocrine factor that promotes the growth of
CC       fibroblasts and is involved in the neoplastic transformation of
CC       fibroblasts by v-Src. Chemotactic for peripheral blood mononuclear
CC       cells as well as for heterophils.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000305}.
CC   -!- INDUCTION: By serum. Expressed constitutively in Rous sarcoma virus
CC       (RSV) infected cells.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the intercrine alpha (chemokine CxC) family.
CC       {ECO:0000305}.
