Pharmacological characterization of the chemokine receptor, CCR5 [PDF]
We investigated the effects of a number of naturally occurring chemokines (MIP‐1α, MIP‐1β, RANTES, MCP‐2, MCP‐3, MCP‐4) on different processes linked to the chemokine receptor CCR5 in recombinant CHO cells expressing the receptor at different levels.

Expression of the chemokine receptor CCR5 in psoriasis and results of a randomized placebo controlled trial with a CCR5 inhibitor [PDF]
Several reports have indicated that the chemokine receptor CCR5 and its ligands, especially CCL5 (formerly known as RANTES), may play a role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. The purpose of this investigation was to examine the expression of CCR5 and its

The GHS-R Blocker D-[Lys3] GHRP-6 Serves as CCR5 Chemokine Receptor Antagonist [PDF]
[D-Lys3]-Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide-6 (DLS) is widely utilized in vivo and in vitro as a selective ghrelin receptor (GHS-R) antagonist. This antagonist is one of the most common antagonists utilized in vivo to block GHS-R function and activity ...

Chemokine receptor CCR5: from AIDS to atherosclerosis [PDF]
There is increasing recognition of an important contribution of chemokines and their receptors in the pathology of atherosclerosis and related cardiovascular disease. The chemokine receptor CCR5 was initially known for its role as a co‐receptor for HIV infection of macrophages and is the target of the recently approved CCR5 antagonist maraviroc ...

pH‐Independent Endocytic Cycling of the Chemokine Receptor CCR5 [PDF]
Following agonist activation, the chemokine receptor CCR5 is internalised through clathrin‐coated pits and delivered to recycling endosomes. Subsequently, ligand‐ free and resensitised receptors are recycled to the cell surface. Currently little is known of the mechanisms regulating resensitisation and recycling of this G‐protein coupled receptor. Here
