Interactions of the chemokines CXCL11 and CXCL12 in human tumor cells
Abstract Background The chemokines, CXCL12 and CXCL11, are upregulated in tumors from many organs and control their progression. CXCL12 and CXCL11 affect tumor cell functions by either binding their prime receptors, CXCR4 and CXCR3, respectively, and/or CXCR7 as a common second chemokine receptor. In humans, CXCR3 exists

A nanoluciferase biosensor to investigate endogenous chemokine secretion and receptor binding
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

Monomeric structure of the cardioprotective chemokine SDF‐1/CXCL12 [PDF]
AbstractThe chemokine stromal cell‐derived factor‐1 (SDF‐1/CXCL12) directs leukocyte migration, stem cell homing, and cancer metastasis through activation of CXCR4, which is also a coreceptor for T‐tropic HIV‐1. Recently, SDF‐1 was shown to play a protective role after myocardial infarction, and the protein is a candidate for development of new anti ...

Bioluminescent CXCL12 fusion protein for cellular studies of CXCR4 and CXCR7
Chemokine CXCL12 and its two known receptors, CXCR4 and CXCR7, may play a role in diseases including tumor growth and metastasis, atherosclerosis, and HIV infection. Therefore, these molecules may be promising targets for drug development.

ACKR3 Regulation of Neuronal Migration Requires ACKR3 Phosphorylation, but Not β-Arrestin
Summary: Phosphorylation of heptahelical receptors is thought to regulate G protein signaling, receptor endocytosis, and non-canonical signaling via recruitment of β-arrestins.

CXCL12 enhances pregnancy outcome via improvement of endometrial receptivity in mice
Successful pregnancy inevitably depends on the implantation of a competent embryo into a receptive endometrium. Although many substances have been suggested to improve the rate of embryo implantation targeting enhancement of endometrial receptivity ...
