Ladarixin, a dual CXCR1/2 inhibitor, attenuates experimental melanomas harboring different molecular defects by affecting malignant cells and tumor microenvironment. [PDF]
, 2017 CXCR1 and CXCR2 chemokine receptors and their ligands (CXCL1/2/3/7/8) play an important role in tumor progression. Tested to date CXCR1/2 antagonists and chemokine-targeted antibodies were reported to affect malignant cells in vitro and in animal models.

The therapeutic aspects of the endocannabinoid system (ECS) for cancer and their development: from nature to laboratory [PDF]
, 2016 The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is a group of neuromodulatory lipids and their receptors, which are widely distributed in mammalian tissues. ECS regulates various cardiovascular, nervous, and immune system functions inside cells.

ACKR3 Regulation of Neuronal Migration Requires ACKR3 Phosphorylation, but Not β-Arrestin
Cell Reports, 2019 Summary: Phosphorylation of heptahelical receptors is thought to regulate G protein signaling, receptor endocytosis, and non-canonical signaling via recruitment of β-arrestins.

Human platelets and their capacity of binding viruses: Meaning and challenges? [PDF]
, 2015 Blood platelets are first aimed at ensuring primary hemostasis. Beyond this role, they have been acknowledged as having functions in the maintenance of the vascular arborescence and, more recently, as being also innate immune cells, devoted notably to ...

RIPK3 restricts viral pathogenesis via cell death-independent neuroinflammation [PDF]
, 2017 Receptor-interacting protein kinase-3 (RIPK3) is an activator of necroptotic cell death, but recent work has implicated additional roles for RIPK3 in inflammatory signaling independent of cell death.

Atypical chemokine receptor 2: a brake against Kaposi's sarcoma aggressiveness [PDF]
OncoImmunology, 2014 Inflammatory chemokines are instrumental players in cancer-related inflammation contributing to numerous steps during tumor progression. In Kaposi's sarcoma, we have found that downregulation of the atypical chemokine receptor 2 (ACKR2) by the KRAS/BRAF/ERK pathway profoundly affects the tumor microenvironment, unleashing accumulation of tumor ...
