The chemokine, CXCL12, is an independent predictor of poor survival in ovarian cancer [PDF]
Background: The chemokine CXCL12 and its cognate receptor, CXCR4, have been implicated in numerous tumour types where expression promotes tumour growth, angiogenesis, metastasis and suppresses tumour immunity.

Gene Variations of Chemokine and Chemokine Receptor CXCL12/CXCR4 in Lung Cancer
Lung cancer is the most common type of cancer in the world and about 1 million people die from lung cancer every year in the world. Inflammation is an important factor in the onset, progression and metastasis of lung cancer. The most important regulators

The role of the chemokine CXCL12 in osteoclastogenesis
The chemokine CXCL12 (variously termed stromal-derived factor 1 or B cell-stimulating factor) is a highly conserved chemotactic cytokine belonging to the large family of CXC chemokines.

CXCR7 functions as a scavenger for CXCL12 and CXCL11. [PDF]
BackgroundCXCR7 (RDC1), the recently discovered second receptor for CXCL12, is phylogenetically closely related to chemokine receptors, but fails to couple to G-proteins and to induce typical chemokine receptor mediated cellular responses.

Neutraligands of the chemokine CXCL12 in asthma
La liaison de CXCL12 à ses récepteurs CXCR4 et CXCR7 peut-être bloquée par un neutraligand de CXCL12, la chalcone 4, qui présente une activité anti-inflammatoire dans un modèle d’asthme chez la souris.

Cxcl12 evolution - subfunctionalization of a ligand through altered interaction with the chemokine receptor. [PDF]
International audienceThe active migration of primordial germ cells (PGCs) from their site of specification towards their target is a valuable model for investigating directed cell migration within the complex environment of the developing embryo.

The chemokine CXCL12 regulates monocyte-macrophage differentiation and RUNX3 expression [PDF]
Monocytes are versatile cells that can express different functional programs in response to microenvironmental signals. We show that primary blood monocytes secrete the CXCL12 chemokine, and express the CXCR4 and CXCR7 receptors, leading to an autocrine ...
