Touch of chemokines [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2012
Chemoattractant cytokines or chemokines constitute a family of structurally related proteins found in vertebrates, bacteria or viruses. So far, 48 chemokines genes have been identified in humans, which bind to around 20 chemokine receptors.

Sphingomyelin Depletion Inhibits CXCR4 Dynamics and CXCL12-Mediated Directed Cell Migration in Human T Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Sphingolipids, ceramides and cholesterol are integral components of cellular membranes, and they also play important roles in signal transduction by regulating the dynamics of membrane receptors through their effects on membrane fluidity.

Analysis of combinatorial chemokine receptor expression dynamics using multi-receptor reporter mice

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Inflammatory chemokines and their receptors are central to the development of inflammatory/immune pathologies. The apparent complexity of this system, coupled with lack of appropriate in vivo models, has limited our understanding of how chemokines ...

TFR Cells Express Functional CCR6 But It Is Dispensable for Their Development and Localization During Splenic Humoral Immune Responses

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Follicular T cells including T follicular helper (TFH) and T follicular regulatory (TFR) cells are essential in supporting and regulating the quality of antibody responses that develop in the germinal centre (GC).

Chemokines and their receptors: predictors of the therapeutic potential of mesenchymal stromal cells

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine, 2021
Multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are promising cellular therapeutics for the treatment of inflammatory and degenerative disorders due to their anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory and regenerative potentials. MSCs can be sourced from a variety

Accuracy of CCL20 expression level as a liquid biopsy-based diagnostic biomarker for ovarian carcinoma

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
ObjectiveThe study aimed to investigate the potentiality of chemokines, including MCP-1, CCL15, CCL20, and CXCL14, as biomarkers for differential diagnosis between benign tumors and ovarian cancer (OC).MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted in ...

Chemokines [PDF]

open access: yesArteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2015
It is now well appreciated that chemokines play a fundamental role in various aspects of CVDs (Figure). Although numerous features of chemokine biology in relation to CVD remain to be elucidated, recent studies including those published i ATVB and highlighted herein have substantially contributed to our current knowledge on chemokines.

Glioma-derived CCL2 and CCL7 mediate migration of immune suppressive CCR2+/CX3CR1+ M-MDSCs into the tumor microenvironment in a redundant manner

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and malignant primary brain tumor, resulting in poor survival despite aggressive therapies. GBM is characterized in part by a highly heterogeneous and immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) made up ...

Pre-clinical validation of a pan-cancer CAR-T cell immunotherapy targeting nfP2X7

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell immunotherapy is a novel treatment that genetically modifies the patients’ own T cells to target and kill malignant cells. However, identification of tumour-specific antigens expressed on multiple solid cancer types,
