The CXCL12/CXCR4/ACKR3 Signaling Axis Regulates PKM2 and Glycolysis
In response to CXCL12, CXCR4 and ACKR3 both recruit β-arrestin 2, regulating the assembly of interacting proteins that drive signaling and contribute to the functions of both receptors in cancer and multiple other diseases.

TR-FRET between engineered nanobodies reveals the existence of endogenous CXCR4 oligomers [PDF]
Chemokine receptors CXCR4 and ACKR3 are involved in multiple physiological and pathological processes. In overexpression systems, CXCR4 and ACKR3 form oligomers that are important for chemokine recognition and signaling.

The role of ACKR3 in breast, lung, and brain cancer [PDF]
Recent reports regarding the significance of chemokine receptors in disease have put a spotlight on atypical chemokine receptor 3 (ACKR3). This atypical chemokine receptor is overexpressed in numerous cancer types and has been involved in the modulation ...

Hemin-induced platelet activation is regulated by the ACKR3 chemokine surface receptor and has implications for passivation of vulnerable atherosclerotic plaques. [PDF]
In vulnerable atherosclerotic plaques, intraplaque hemorrhages (IPH) result in hemolysis of red blood cells and release of hemoglobin and free hemin. Hemin activates platelets and leads to thrombosis.

Targeting the CXCL12/CXCR4 pathway by an optimized derivative or EPI-X4 preserves chondrocyte function and offers a novel therapeutic approach in rheumatic diseases [PDF]
Background The C-X-C motif chemokine 12 (CXCL12) and its receptor CXCR4 are pivotal in tissue regeneration and inflammation, yet their role in osteoarthritis (OA) remains ambiguous.

CXCR7 is highly expressed in acute lymphoblastic leukemia and potentiates CXCR4 response to CXCL12. [PDF]
Recently, a novel CXCL12-binding receptor, has been identified. This CXCL12-binding receptor commonly known as CXCR7 (CXC chemokine receptor 7), has lately, based on a novel nomenclature, has received the name ACKR3 (atypical chemokine receptor 3).
