Organ-specific features of natural killer cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
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.

CCR5 Signaling Promotes Murine and Human Hematopoietic Regeneration following Ionizing Radiation

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2019
Summary: Hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) depend on regulatory cytokines from the marrow microenvironment. From an unbiased cytokine screen of murine marrow supernatants, we identified C-C motif chemokine ligand 5 (CCL5) as an endothelial ...

Interaction between the CCR5 chemokine receptors and microbial HSP70 [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Immunology, 2006
AbstractEvidence is presented that the microbial 70‐kD heat shock protein (HSP70) binds to CCR5 chemokine receptors in CCR5‐transfected cell lines and in primary human cells. Significant CCR5‐mediated calcium mobilization was stimulated by HSP70 and inhibited with TAK 779, which is a specific CCR5 antagonist.

Shuttling Tolerogenic Dendritic Cells across the Blood–Brain Barrier In Vitro via the Introduction of De Novo C–C Chemokine Receptor 5 Expression Using Messenger RNA Electroporation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
The use of tolerance-inducing dendritic cells (tolDCs) has been proven to be safe and well tolerated in the treatment of autoimmune diseases. Nevertheless, several challenges remain, including finding ways to facilitate the migration of cell therapeutic ...

Generation of a human iPSC line (IMEDEAi008-A) derived from natural homozygous CCR5-Δ32 PBMCs enriched in the pro-erythroblast population

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2020
A 32 base pair deletion in the C-C chemokine receptor type gene (CCR5-Δ32), the main Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) co-receptor results in a non-functional protein. Individuals homozygous for the CCR5-Δ32 mutation are resistant to HIV infection. Here

Staphylococcus aureus Leukocidin LukED and HIV-1 gp120 Target Different Sequence Determinants on CCR5

open access: yesmBio, 2016
Leukocidin ED (LukED) is a bicomponent pore-forming toxin produced by Staphylococcus aureus that lyses host cells by targeting the chemokine receptors CC chemokine receptor type 5 (CCR5), CXCR1, CXCR2, and DARC.

Mutation of CCR5 Delta 32 in Umbilical Cord Blood Samples: Future Potential for HIV-1 Cure [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2020
Introduction: Human Immune Deficiency (HIV) virus is a highly mutagenic virus with diverse antigenic types and subtypes. Long latency leading to persistence in infected cell as provirus which poses great problem in developing HIV cure.

Evolution of chemokine receptors is driven by mutations in the sodium binding site.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2018
Chemokines and their receptors (members of the GPCR super-family) are involved in a wide variety of physiological processes and diseases; thus, understanding the specificity of the chemokine receptor family could help develop new receptor specific drugs.

RNase P Ribozyme Effectively Inhibits Human CC-Chemokine Receptor 5 Expression and Human Immunodeficiency Virus 1 Infection

open access: yesZoonotic Diseases, 2023
Developing novel antiviral agents and approaches is essential for the treatment against human and zoonotic viruses. We had previously produced RNase P-based ribozyme variants capable of efficiently cleaving mRNA in vitro.

TLR7-mediated skin inflammation remotely triggers chemokine expression and leukocyte accumulation in the brain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: The relationship between the brain and the immune system has become increasingly topical as, although it is immune-specialised, the CNS is not free from the influences of the immune system.
