Structural basis for chemokine recognition and receptor activation of chemokine receptor CCR5
The chemokine receptor CCR5 plays multiple roles in the immune system. Here, structures of Gi1 protein-coupled CCR5 with or without a chemokine bound and of the CCR5- chemokine MIP-1 α complex offer insight into the distinct binding modes of the ligands ...

Chemokines and chemokine receptors in arthritis [PDF]
Chemokines are involved in leukocyte recruitment to inflammatory sites, such as the synovial tissue in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). There is a structural and a functional classification of chemokines. The former includes four groups: CXC, CC, C and CX3C chemokines.

Differential expression of chemokine receptors and their role in cancer imaging
Chemokine/chemokine receptor interactions play diverse roles in cell migration and homeostasis. Emerging evidence suggests that cancer cells co-opt chemokine networks for survival, proliferation, immune evasion and metastasis.

Chemokines and chemokine receptors: an overview
Chemokines are chemotactic cytokines orchestrating leukocyte recruitment in physiological and pathological conditions. This complex system includes 42 molecules and 19 receptors and is subjected to different levels of regulation, including ligand production, post-translational modifications and degradation, as well as receptor expression and signaling ...

Chemokines mediate their multiple effects by binding to a variety of specific receptors, that comprise a subfamily of rhodopsin-like, 7-transmembrane domain receptors, coupled to G proteins. Some of these receptors serve as coreceptors for HIV, some of them could be expressed as markers for T lymphocyte functional differentiation.

Teleost Chemokines and Their Receptors [PDF]
Chemokines are a superfamily of cytokines that appeared about 650 million years ago, at the emergence of vertebrates, and are responsible for regulating cell migration under both inflammatory and physiological conditions. The first teleost chemokine gene was reported in rainbow trout in 1998. Since then, numerous chemokine genes have been identified in
