Organ-specific features of natural killer cells. [PDF]
Natural killer (NK) cells can be swiftly mobilized by danger signals and are among the earliest arrivals at target organs of disease. However, the role of NK cells in mounting inflammatory responses is often complex and sometimes paradoxical.

Chemokines and chemokine receptors in Behçet’s disease
Behçet’s disease (BD), a chronic vascular inflammatory disease, is characterized by the symptoms of ocular lesions, recurrent genital and oral ulcers, skin symptoms and arthritis in addition to neurological, intestinal and vascular involvement. The pathogenesis of BD is poorly understood, and there are no effective laboratory markers for the diagnosis ...

The atypical chemokine receptor ACKR2 is protective against sepsis [PDF]
Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response as a result of uncontrolled infections. Neutrophils are the first cells to reach the primary sites of infection and chemokines play a key role in recruiting neutrophils.

Human Mas-related G protein-coupled receptors-X1 induce chemokine receptor 2 expression in rat dorsal root ganglia neurons and release of chemokine ligand 2 from the human LAD-2 mast cell line [PDF]
Primate-specific Mas-related G protein-coupled receptors-X1 (MRGPR-X1) are highly enriched in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons and induce acute pain. Herein, we analyzed effects of MRGPR-X1 on serum response factors (SRF) or nuclear factors of activated

Bidirectional Regulation of Opioid and Chemokine Function
The opioid family of GPCRs consists of the classical opioid receptors, designated μ-, κ-, and δ-opioid receptors, and the orphanin-FQ receptor, and these proteins are expressed on both neuronal and hematopoietic cells.

Shifting CCR7 towards Its Monomeric Form Augments CCL19 Binding and Uptake
The chemokine receptor CCR7, together with its ligands, is responsible for the migration and positioning of adaptive immune cells, and hence critical for launching adaptive immune responses. CCR7 is also induced on certain cancer cells and contributes to
