The Role of the CXCL12/CXCR4/CXCR7 Chemokine Axis in Cancer [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Chemokines are a family of small, secreted cytokines which regulate a variety of cell functions. The C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 12 (CXCL12) binds to C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4) and C-X-C chemokine receptor type 7 (CXCR7). The interaction of

CXCL12 and CXCL13 as potential biomarkers for disease severity and recurrence in respiratory syncytial virus bronchiolitis [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
To examine chemokine expression in children with Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) bronchiolitis and evaluate its clinical utility for early warning and prognosis. Five hospitalised RSV bronchiolitis children and five matched controls were studied.

The Role of CXCL12 in Kidney Diseases: A Friend or Foe?

open access: yesKidney Diseases, 2021
Background: Chemokines are a family of proteins mainly mediating the homing and migration of various cells. The CXC chemokine CXCL12 is a member of low-weight-molecular chemokines.

Evaluation of CXCL12 and CXCR4 to predict poor survival in lymph node-positive colorectal cancer patients

open access: yesPolish Journal of Pathology, 2021
It is well known that interactions in the tumour microenvironment are very important in the progression of tumours. We investigated the relationship between chemokine ligand type 12 (CXCL12), chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4) and survival in advanced ...

A new obligate CXCL4–CXCL12 heterodimer for studying chemokine heterodimer activities and mechanisms

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Chemokines form a family of proteins with critical roles in many biological processes in health and disease conditions, including cardiovascular, autoimmune diseases, infections, and cancer.

CXCL12-stimulated lymphocytes produce secondary stimulants that affect the surrounding cell chemotaxis

open access: yesBiochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2021
Chemotactic factors locally secreted from tissues regulate leukocyte migration via cell membrane receptors that induce intracellular signals. It has been suggested that neutrophils stimulated by bacterial peptides secrete a secondary stimulant that ...

Ebf3+ niche-derived CXCL12 is required for the localization and maintenance of hematopoietic stem cells

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Lympho-hematopoiesis is regulated by cytokines; however, it remains unclear how cytokines regulate hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) to induce production of lymphoid progenitors.

A nanoluciferase biosensor to investigate endogenous chemokine secretion and receptor binding

open access: yesiScience, 2021
Summary: Secreted chemokines are critical mediators of cellular communication that elicit intracellular signaling by binding membrane-bound receptors. Here we demonstrate the development and use of a sensitive real-time approach to quantify secretion and
