Background
LECT2 (Leukocyte cell-derived chemotaxin 2) was first isolated by Yamagoe et al in PHA-activated human T-cell leukaemia SKW-3 cells and originally identified as a novel neutrophil chemotactic factor, in 1996. LECT2 is a 16-kDa secreted protein originally identified as a chemotactic factor for neutrophils that can stimulate the growth of chondrocytes and osteoblasts. LECT2 is a pleiotropic and promising hepatokine, and as a latest ligand for Tie1, played a pro-fibrogenic role in the progression of liver fibrogenesis.
