Viral Chemokine Receptors [PDF]
When my lab sequenced the first chemokine receptors CXCR2 and CCR1 in 1991, the top BLAST hit for CCR1 was open reading frame (ORF) US28 of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), indicating an obvious common ancestor and a possible example of gene piracy. Pox virologists had already identified virally encoded TNF and IFN-γ binding proteins, copied from the host

The Role of Atypical Chemokine Receptor CCXCKR (CCRL1) in Human Diseases [PDF]
The role of chemokines and their receptors have been identified in many biological activities such as immune response and angiogenesis; however, their regulatory ways are under investigation.

Summary: Chemokine receptors, a subfamily of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), are responsible for cell migration during physiological processes as well as in diseases like inflammation and cancers.

Blocking Chemokine Receptors [PDF]
In our first review on chemokines (([1][1])), we suggested that blockade of the IL-8 receptor or inhibition of IL-8 gene expression could be a new principle for designing antiinflammatory agents. The unexpected growth of the chemokine family and consequent redundancy of the system eventually made ...

Accelerated in vivo proliferation of memory phenotype CD4+ T-cells in human HIV-1 infection irrespective of viral chemokine co-receptor tropism. [PDF]
CD4(+) T-cell loss is the hallmark of HIV-1 infection. CD4 counts fall more rapidly in advanced disease when CCR5-tropic viral strains tend to be replaced by X4-tropic viruses.

A guide to chemokines and their receptors [PDF]
The chemokines (or chemotactic cytokines) are a large family of small, secreted proteins that signal through cell surface G‐protein coupled heptahelical chemokine receptors.

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.

Functional diversity of chemokines and chemokine receptors in response to viral infection of the central nervous system. [PDF]
Encounters with neurotropic viruses result in varied outcomes ranging from encephalitis, paralytic poliomyelitis or other serious consequences to relatively benign infection.
