Influence of CCL2-mediated modulation of ALIX in the budding and replication of viruses from multiple families [PDF]
Signaling by C-C motif ligand 2 (CCL2), a β-chemokine, modulates HIV-1 budding and release by mobilizing ALG-2-interacting protein X (ALIX) from the F-actin cytoskeleton to the cytosol. Immunodepleting CCL2 in the medium sequesters ALIX to F-actin.

Human Mas-related G protein-coupled receptors-X1 induce chemokine receptor 2 expression in rat dorsal root ganglia neurons and release of chemokine ligand 2 from the human LAD-2 mast cell line [PDF]
Primate-specific Mas-related G protein-coupled receptors-X1 (MRGPR-X1) are highly enriched in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons and induce acute pain. Herein, we analyzed effects of MRGPR-X1 on serum response factors (SRF) or nuclear factors of activated
