Role of exonic variation in chemokine receptor genes on AIDS: CCRL2 F167Y association with pneumocystis pneumonia.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2011
Chromosome 3p21-22 harbors two clusters of chemokine receptor genes, several of which serve as major or minor coreceptors of HIV-1. Although the genetic association of CCR5 and CCR2 variants with HIV-1 pathogenesis is well known, the role of variation in

Upregulation of surface feline CXCR4 expression following ectopic expression of CCR5: implications for studies of the cell tropism of feline immunodeficiency virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Feline CXCR4 and CCR5 were expressed in feline cells as fusion proteins with enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP). Expression of the EGFP fusion proteins was localized to the cell membrane, and surface expression of CXCR4 was confirmed by using a ...

Selective PAR2 Inhibition Attenuates HDM‐Induced Th1/Th2 Responses in Human Epithelial and Murine Models of Allergic Rhinitis and Asthma

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Allergic rhinitis (AR) and asthma are involved in complex interactions between Th1 and Th2 inflammatory pathways. House dust mite (HDM) activates protease‐activated receptor 2 (PAR2) to trigger inflammatory responses, but current treatments often provide inadequate control.

Evidence for CD4-enchanced Signaling through the Chemokine Receptor CCR5 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2003
The chemokine receptor CCR5 is constitutively associated with the T cell co-receptor CD4 in plasma cell membranes, but the physiological role of this interaction has not been elucidated. Here we show that detergent-solubilized, purified CCR5 can directly associate with purified soluble fragments of the extracellular portion of CD4.

The Expanding Therapeutic Perspective of CCR5 Blockade

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
CCR5 and its interaction with chemokine ligands have been crucial for understanding and tackling HIV-1 entry into target cells. However, over time, CCR5 has witnessed an impressive transition from being considered rather unimportant in physiology and ...

Transcriptional down-regulation of ccr5 in a subset of HIV+ controllers and their family members. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
HIV +Elite and Viremic controllers (EC/VCs) are able to control virus infection, perhaps because of host genetic determinants. We identified 16% (21 of 131) EC/VCs with CD4 +T cells with resistance specific to R5-tropic HIV, reversed after introduction ...

Therapeutic targeting of myeloid cells in liver fibrosis: Mechanisms and clinical prospects

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This review systematically summarizes the origin, recruitment, and differentiation regulation mechanisms of myeloid cells in driving hepatic fibrosis progression. By targeting these three critical phases, potential therapeutic strategies for liver fibrosis can be explored.

Molecular determinants of antagonist interactions with chemokine receptors CCR2 and CCR5

open access: yes, 2023
AbstractBy driving monocyte chemotaxis, the chemokine receptor CCR2 shapes inflammatory responses and the formation of tumor microenvironments. This makes it a promising target in inflammation and immuno-oncology; however, despite extensive efforts, there are no FDA-approved CCR2-targeting therapeutics.

CCL5 rs2107538 Polymorphism Increased the Risk of Tuberculosis in a Sample of Iranian Population

open access: yesPrague Medical Report, 2016
Cysteine-cysteine chemokine ligand 5 (CCL5) with immunoregulatory and inflammatory activities has an important role in granuloma formations that activates and stimulates T-cells and macrophages.
