Chemokines

Developmental & Comparative Immunology, 2004
Chemokines are small proteins that control cellular migration. An extensive family of these molecules has been described in mammals containing nearly 50 members. Within this family are four groups, each defined by the different spacing of two N-terminal cysteines, which form disulphide bonds with two other cysteine residues to create the tertiary ...

Chemokines

2009
Tumor growth is restricted to approximately 2 microm diameters by simple dissociation of nutrients and oxygen. Hence, tumors require the formation of new blood vessels for further growth progression. This process is referred to as tumor neo-angiogenesis. The process of tumor neo-angiogenesis is directed by complex bidirectional interactions between the

Chemokines, chemokine receptors and hematopoiesis

Immunological Reviews, 2000
Hematopoiesis during steady state conditions is regulated and finely tuned by a network of cytokines and their effects on hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells and on accessory cells that influence the stem and progenitor cells. Amongst the numerous cytokines implicated in this regulation are members of the CC, CXC and C family of chemokines.

Chemokines and chemokine receptors in rheumatoid arthritis

Seminars in Immunology, 2003
Chemokines are chemotactic cytokines involved in a number of pathological processes, including inflammatory conditions. Chemokines play a role in the pathogenesis of various inflammatory diseases. Based on a burgeoning body of literature, RA was chosen as a prototype to discuss this issue. In this review, the authors give a detailed introduction to the

Chemokines, Chemokine Receptors and Allergy

International Archives of Allergy and Immunology, 2001
Chemokines are a group of cytokines that are responsible for the influx of blood cells, including T and B lymphocytes, monocytes, neutrophils, eosinophils and basophils, in allergic and other inflammatory conditions. They function as G protein-coupled chemotactic factors which also activate the cells with which they interact.

Chemokines and Chemokine Receptors in Scleroderma

International Archives of Allergy and Immunology, 2006
Scleroderma is a connective tissue disease with unknown etiology characterized by excessive deposition of extracellular matrix in the skin. Cellular infiltrates of certain immune cells and proinflammatory mediators are suggested to play a crucial role in cutaneous fibrosis, forming complicated networks between fibroblasts and immune cells via cell-cell

Chemokines, chemokine receptors and pain

Trends in Immunology, 2005
Many patients suffer from neuropathic pain as a result of injury to the peripheral nervous system (e.g. post-herpetic neuralgia or diabetic neuropathy) or to the central nervous system (e.g. spinal cord injury or stroke). The most distinctive symptom of neuropathic pain is allodynia, whereby normally non-painful stimuli, such as light touch, become ...

Chemokines and Chemokine Receptors

1999
Classic chemoattractants include complement components, formyl peptides and leukotriene B4. In addition, various cytokines are able to elicit directional migration of leukocytes. While molecules such as monocyte-colony stimulating factor or tumor necrosis factor also exert chemotactic activity, the main chemotactic cytokines are a superfamily of ...

Chemokines and cancer

International Journal of Cancer, 2004
AbstractThe chemokines and their receptors are a superfamily of small secreted molecules that control the migration of many cell types in the body. Several years ago it became clear that some chemokines and receptors regulate the migration of certain cells in the lymphoid system, and this raised the possibility that chemokines could also control the ...
