'''Eosinophil cationic protein (ECP)''' also known as '''ribonuclease 3''' is a basic protein located in the [[eosinophil]] primary matrix.<ref name="pmid11404391">{{cite journal |vauthors=Boix E, Carreras E, Nikolovski Z, Cuchillo CM, Nogués MV | title = Identification and characterization of human eosinophil cationic protein by an epitope-specific antibody | journal = J.

ECP is released during degranulation of [[eosinophils]]. This protein is related to inflammation and asthma because in these cases, there are increased levels of ECP in the body.
There are three [[glycosylation|glycosylated]] forms of ECP and consequently ECP has a range of molecular weights from 18-22 kDa.<ref>Lee BioSolutions, Inc. http://www.leebio.com/eosinophil-cationic-protein-human-P359.html</ref>

== Function ==

Eosinophil cationic protein and the sequence related [[eosinophil-derived neurotoxin]] (''RNASE2'') are both members of the [[Ribonuclease A]] superfamily. Both proteins possess [[neurotoxic]], [[parasitic worm|helmintho]]-toxic, and [[RNA|ribonucleo]]-lytic activities. Eosinophil cationic protein is localized to the [[granule (cell biology)|granule]] matrix of the [[eosinophil]].<ref name="pmid2387583">{{cite journal |vauthors=Hamann KJ, Ten RM, Loegering DA, Jenkins RB, Heise MT, Schad CR, Pease LR, Gleich GJ, Barker RL | title = Structure and chromosome localization of the human eosinophil-derived neurotoxin and eosinophil cationic protein genes: evidence for intronless coding sequences in the ribonuclease gene superfamily | journal = Genomics | volume = 7 | issue = 4 | pages = 535–46 |date=August 1990 | pmid = 2387583 | doi = 10.1016/0888-7543(90)90197-3}}</ref>

== Ribonuclease activity and cytotoxicity ==

The ribonuclease activity of ECP is not essential for cytotoxicity.<ref name="pmid7713881">{{cite journal | author = Rosenberg HF | title = Recombinant human eosinophil cationic protein.

When the two known [[ribonuclease]] active-site residues are modified to non-functional counterparts (Lysine at position 38 to Arginine and Histidine at position 128 to Aspartate)<ref name="pmid2656865">{{cite journal |vauthors=Lehrer RI, Szklarek D, Barton A, Ganz T, Hamann KJ, Gleich GJ | title = Antibacterial properties of eosinophil major basic protein and eosinophil cationic protein | journal = Journal of Immunology | volume = 142 | issue = 12 | pages = 4428–34 |date=June 1989 | doi = 10.4049/jimmunol.142.12.4428 | pmid = 2656865 | s2cid = 46456095 | doi-access = free }}</ref>  and compared to the wild-type ECP, the mutated ECP retains its cytotoxicity but no longer has its ribonuclease activity.  The experiment confirmed that converting the two amino acids to non-functional counterparts did inhibit ECP’s ribonuclease activity. However, ECP retained its anti-parasitic activity. Also, it did not change the production and transportation of ECP in bacteria.

== ECP-induced apoptosis ==
[[File:Figure 8.jpg|thumb|Role of rECP in TNF-α apoptosis signaling. rECP increases BEAS-2B cells TNF-α production and release. The release of TNF-α binding to TNF receptor results in receptor internalization and activates caspase-8. Caspase-8-induced apoptosis can either trigger mitochondrial response or directly cause PARP activation by caspase-3. However, rECP-induced apoptosis shows no effects on mitochondrial responses. Accordingly, we suggest that rECP induces mitochondria-independent apoptosis.<ref name="Chang_2010"/>]]

Studies show that ECP, along with other RNases including EDN, had been reported to induce [[apoptosis]] in cells. A latest study indicated that ECP caused cytotoxicity in HL-60 and HeLa cells via caspase-3 like activity.<ref name="pmid18087674">{{cite journal |vauthors=Navarro S, Aleu J, Jiménez M, Boix E, Cuchillo CM, Nogués MV | title = The cytotoxicity of eosinophil cationic protein/ribonuclease 3 on eukaryotic cell lines takes place through its aggregation on the cell membrane | journal = Cell.

However, the mechanism of ECP-induced apoptosis is still not fully verified.

== Clinical significance ==

[[Eosinophil granulocyte]]s appear in large numbers in inflammation sites and in response to certain parasitic infections. These cytoplasmic granules contain positively charged proteins that characterize the cells. ECP is one of the four highly basic proteins that enter the surrounding tissues when activated eosinophils degranulate. Although circulating ECP levels can vary widely among patients, some studies show that serum ECP measurements are useful in monitoring many active inflammatory diseases.<ref name="pmid7937446">{{cite journal | author = Wardlaw AJ | title = Eosinophils in the 1990s: new perspectives on their role in health and disease | journal = Postgrad Med J | volume = 70 | issue = 826 | pages = 536–52 |date=August 1994 | pmid = 7937446 | pmc = 2397687 | doi = 10.1136/pgmj.70.826.536}}</ref> ECP concentrations in plasma and other body fluids increase during inflammatory reactions marked by activated eosinophils.<ref name="pmid8792921">{{cite journal |vauthors=D'Amato G, Liccardi G, Russo M, Saggese M, D'Amato M | title = Measurement of serum levels of eosinophil cationic protein to monitor patients with seasonal respiratory allergy induced by Parietaria pollen (treated and untreated with specific immunotherapy) | journal = Allergy | volume = 51 | issue = 4 | pages = 245–50 |date=April 1996 | pmid = 8792921 | doi = 10.1111/j.1398-9995.1996.tb00075.x}}</ref>

Serum ECP levels are also a useful, objective measurement for asthma severity. Increased ECP levels correspond to symptom onset. In seasonal asthmatic patients, ECP measurement reflected changes in disease activity throughout the year.<ref name="pmid8648032">{{cite journal |vauthors=Tomassini M, Magrini L, De Petrillo G, Adriani E, Bonini S, Balsano F, Bonini S | title = Serum levels of eosinophil cationic protein in allergic diseases and natural allergen exposure | journal = The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology | volume = 97 | issue = 6 | pages = 1350–5 |date=June 1996 | pmid = 8648032 | doi = 10.1016/S0091-6749(96)70204-X| doi-access = free }}</ref>

There are several mechanisms that can be combined to generate an [[asthma]] attack, including specific [[IgE]] antibodies, activated inflammatory cells, neurogenic mechanisms, hyperresponsiveness and individual hormonal imbalances. Allergic reactions in the lung typically have two phases. The late phase typically occurs several hours after exposure, upon which [[eosinophils]] accumulate in the [[bronchus]] and release granule proteins that cause bronchial irritability. ECP is also toxic to neurons, some epithelial cell lines, and isolated myocardial cells.<ref name="Czech_1992">{{cite journal |vauthors=Czech W, Krutmann J, Schöpf E, Kapp A | title = Serum eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) is a sensitive measure for disease activity in atopic dermatitis | journal = Br. J. Dermatol. | volume = 126 | issue = 4 | pages = 351–5 |date=April 1992 | pmid = 1571256 | doi = 10.1111/j.1365-2133.1992.tb00677.x| s2cid = 23425301 }}</ref> This could be a reason for itching disorders of the skin.

Serum ECP concentrations have also been linked to [[atopic dermatitis]] (AD) activity. ECP correlates with the symptoms ([[lichenification]], [[sleep deprivation]], [[erythema]], [[papules]], [[pruritus]] and [[excoriation]]s) for AD and also correlates with the total clinical score.<ref name="Czech_1992"/>

Serum ECP measurement for assessing asthma severity, monitoring therapy, and indicating severity of certain inflammatory skin conditions present an advantage over subjective clinical measures that are prone to inconsistencies due to broad variability of individual investigator and patient assessments, especially in young children.

The normal [[reference range for blood tests]] for eosinophil cationic protein is between 2.3 and 16&nbsp;µg/L.<ref name=uppsala>Reference range list from Uppsala University Hospital ("Laborationslista"). Artnr 40284 Sj74a. Issued on April 22, 2008</ref>
