Abstract: The present invention provides natural occurring, recombinant and synthetic chemokines, interleukins and cytokines in which at least one arginine residue is replaced by or modified into a cltrulline residue. The present Invention also relates to the use of said chemokines, interleukins or cytokines and pharmaceutical compositions comprising said chemokines, interleukins or cytokines as anti-inflammatory agents and as haematopoietic cell (including stem-cell, progenitor cell and leukocyte) or endothelial cell mobilizing agents. Furthermore, the present invention relates to the use of said chemokines, interleukins or cytokines to create antibodies and to use said chemokines, interleukins, cytokines and/or said antibodies as diagnostic tools and as a medicine. In addition, the present invention provides for the processes for the identification and production of the citrullinated chemokines, interleukins or cytokines of the invention.
