CCR8 is preferentially expresses in the thymus; its ligands include thymus activation-regulated cytokine (TARC) and macrophage inflammatory protein-1 (MIP-1) beta. CCR8 is thought to have a central role in regulating monocyte chemotaxis and thymic cell apoptosis, and it may also contribute to positioning of activated T cells within antigenic challenge sites and specialised areas of lymphoid tissues.CCR8
