Targeting the atypical chemokine receptor 2 (<i>Ackr2</i>) improves the benefit of anti-PD-1 immunotherapy in melanoma mouse model. [PDF]
Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapies, such as anti-PD-1, have transformed cancer treatment, but many patients do not respond due to a non-inflammatory tumor microenvironment (TME).

Conformational dynamics underlying atypical chemokine receptor 3 activation
Atypical Chemokine Receptor 3 (ACKR3) is a G protein-coupled receptor that does not signal through G proteins. It is known as a chemokine scavenger involved in various pathologies, making it an appealing yet intriguing therapeutic target.

Stimulation of the atypical chemokine receptor 3 (ACKR3) by a small-molecule agonist attenuates fibrosis in a preclinical liver but not lung injury model. [PDF]
Atypical chemokine receptor 3 (ACKR3, formerly CXC chemokine receptor 7) is a G protein-coupled receptor that recruits β-arrestins, but is devoid of functional G protein signaling after receptor stimulation.

Context-Dependent Signaling of CXC Chemokine Receptor 4 and Atypical Chemokine Receptor 3 [PDF]
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are regulated by complex molecular mechanisms, both in physiologic and pathologic conditions, and their signaling can be intricate. Many factors influence their signaling behavior, including the type of ligand that activates the GPCR, the presence of interacting partners, the kinetics involved, or their location. The

Atypical chemokine receptor 4 shapes activated B cell fate [PDF]
Activated B cells can initially differentiate into three functionally distinct fates-early plasmablasts (PBs), germinal center (GC) B cells, or early memory B cells-by mechanisms that remain poorly understood.
