Genetically Encoded Photo-cross-linkers Map the Binding Site of an Allosteric Drug on a G Protein-Coupled Receptor [PDF]
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are dynamic membrane proteins that bind extracellular molecules to transduce signals. Although GPCRs represent the largest class of therapeutic targets, only a small percentage of their ligand-binding sites are ...

The Effect of N-Terminal Cyclization on the Function of the HIV Entry Inhibitor 5P12-RANTES. [PDF]
Despite effective treatment for those living with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), there are still two million new infections each year. Protein-based HIV entry inhibitors, being highly effective and specific, could be used to protect people from ...

High-Intensity Interval Training and Vitamin D3 Supplementation Decrease CCL-5 and CCR5 Expression In White Adipose Tissue of Diabetic Rats Fed with A High-Fat Diet and Streptozotocin [PDF]
Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of 8 weeks of high-intensity interval training (HIIT)and vitamin D3 supplementation on Chemokine (C-C motif) Ligand 5 (CCL-5) and C-C motif chemokine receptor 5(CCR5) in the white ...

RNA interference approaches for treatment of HIV-1 infection. [PDF]
HIV/AIDS is a chronic and debilitating disease that cannot be cured with current antiretroviral drugs. While combinatorial antiretroviral therapy (cART) can potently suppress HIV-1 replication and delay the onset of AIDS, viral mutagenesis often leads to

Can gut microbiota of men who have sex with men influence HIV transmission?
Gaining a complete understanding of transmission risk factors will assist in efforts to reduce new HIV infections, especially within the disproportionally affected population of men who have sex with men (MSM).

Deficiency of C-C chemokine receptor 5 suppresses tumor development via inactivation of NF-κB and upregulation of IL-1Ra in melanoma model. [PDF]
To evaluate the relevance of C-C chemokine receptor type 5 (CCR5) expression and tumor development, we compared melanoma growth in CCR5 knockout (CCR5(-/-)) mice and wild type (CCR5(+/+)) mice.

Association of CCR2 Gene but not CCR5 Gene Polymorphisms with Alzheimer’s Disease [PDF]
Chemokines participate in the regulation of immune and inflammatory responses by interacting with their specific receptors on related immune and inflammatory cells such as B-lymphocytes, T-lymphocytes and antigen-presenting cells.
