The positively charged COOH-terminal glycosaminoglycan-binding CXCL9(74-103) peptide inhibits CXCL8-induced neutrophil extravasation and monosodium urate Crystal-induced Gout in Mice [PDF]
The ELR(-)CXC chemokine CXCL9 is characterized by a long, highly positively charged COOH-terminal region, absent in most other chemokines. Several natural leukocyte- and fibroblast-derived COOH-terminally truncated CXCL9 forms missing up to 30 amino ...

The Chemokines CXCL9 and CXCL10 Promote a Protective Immune Response but Do Not Contribute to Cardiac Inflammation following Infection with Trypanosoma cruzi [PDF]
The expression of chemokines within the heart during experimental infection of susceptible mice with the Colombiana strain of Trypanosoma cruzi was characterized in an attempt to determine a functional role for these molecules in both host defense and ...

SufA of the opportunistic pathogen Finegoldia magna modulates actions of the antibacterial chemokine MIG/CXCL9, promoting bacterial survival during epithelial inflammation. [PDF]
The anaerobic bacterium Finegoldia magna is part of the human commensal microbiota, but is also an important opportunistic pathogen. This bacterium expresses a subtilisin-like serine-proteinase, SufA, which partially degrade the antibacterial chemokine ...

Effect of JAK Inhibitors on Release of CXCL9, CXCL10 and CXCL11 from Human Airway Epithelial Cells. [PDF]
CD8+ T-cells are located in the small airways of COPD patients and may contribute to pathophysiology. CD8+ cells express the chemokine receptor, CXCR3 that binds CXCL9, CXCL10 and CXCL11, which are elevated in the airways of COPD patients.

Serum inflammatory mediators as markers of human Lyme disease activity. [PDF]
Chemokines and cytokines are key signaling molecules that orchestrate the trafficking of immune cells, direct them to sites of tissue injury and inflammation and modulate their states of activation and effector cell function.

Cure of chronic viral infection and virus-induced type 1 diabetes by neutralizing antibodies [PDF]
The use of neutralizing antibodies is one of the most successful methods to interfere with receptor–ligand interactions in vivo. In particular blockade of soluble inflammatory mediators or their corresponding cellular receptors was proven an effective ...

A meta-analysis of chemokines in alopecia areata: recruiting immune cells toward the hair follicle
A deeper understanding of the immune-based pathogenesis of alopecia areata is essential for the development of novel targeted therapies. Compared to cytokines, chemokines exhibit substantially higher serum concentrations, offering a more robust approach ...

Association between CXCL9 and CXCL10 chemokine gene polymorphisms and acute graft rejection after liver transplantation [PDF]
Akutno stanično odbacivanje (ASO) klinički je vrlo značajan događaj koji ugrožava preživljenje i presatka i primatelja jetre. Kemokini CXCL9/10 imaju ključnu ulogu u regrutiranju T-limfocita u presadak te su njihove povišene serumske vrijednosti povezane
