(Aminoacyl tRNA Synthetase Complex-Interacting Multifunctional Protein 1 (AIMP1))
EMAPII is a proinflammatory cytokine and chemoattractant of macrophages. The 20 kDa mature peptide binds to endothelial cells and leukocytes like macrophages. EMAP II activates endothelial cells, by elevation of cytosolic free calcium concentration, release of von Willebrand factor, induction of tissue factor, and expression of adhesion molecules E-selectin and P-selectin. It further activates resting monocytes by elevating cytosolic free calcium concentration, inducing TNFalpha and tissue factor and stimulating chemotaxis. EMAP II has been shown in a tumor model to sensitize the local tumor vasculature to the action of TNFalpha, rendering resistant tumors sensitive to immunotherapy by TNFalpha.Synonyms: AIMP1, Aminoacyl tRNA synthase complex-interacting multifunctional protein 1, EMAP-2, EMAP-II, Endothelial monocyte-activating polypeptide 2, Endothelial monocyte-activating polypeptide II, Multisynthase complex auxiliary component p43, Small inducible cytokine subfamily E member 1
