Identifying chemokines as therapeutic targets in renal disease: Lessons from antagonist studies and knockout mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Chemokines, in concert with cytokines and adhesion molecules, play multiple roles in local and systemic immune responses. In the kidney, the temporal and spatial expression of chemokines correlates with local renal damage and accumulation of chemokine ...

Chemokines CCL3/MIP1α, CCL5/RANTES and CCL18/PARC are independent risk predictors of short-term mortality in patients with acute coronary syndromes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Cytokines play an important role in ischemic injury and repair. However, little is known about their prognostic value in cardiovascular disease. The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic importance of chemokines CCL3/MIP-1α, CCL5/RANTES and

Receptor-mediated Endocytosis of CC-chemokines [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1997
Chemokines are chemotactic proteins which play a central role in immune and inflammatory responses. Chemokine receptors are members of the seven transmembrane G-protein coupled family and have recently been shown to be involved in the entry of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) into target cells.

CC chemokines in zebrafish: Evidence for extensive intrachromosomal gene duplications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Chemokines are a family of structurally related chemotactic cytokines that regulate the migration of leukocytes. CC chemokines represent the largest subfamily of chemokines, with 28 genes in mammals.

Role of the chemokine receptors CCR1, CCR2 and CCR4 in the pathogenesis of experimental dengue infection in mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Dengue virus (DENV), a mosquito-borne flavivirus, is a public health problem in many tropical countries. Recent clinical data have shown an association between levels of different chemokines in plasma and severity of dengue.

Production of CXC and CC chemokines by human antigen-presenting cells in response to Lassa virus or closely related immunogenic viruses, and in cynomolgus monkeys with lassa fever. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2014
The pathogenesis of Lassa fever (LF), a hemorrhagic fever endemic to West Africa, remains unclear. We previously compared Lassa virus (LASV) with its genetically close, but nonpathogenic homolog Mopeia virus (MOPV) and demonstrated that the strong ...

Solution Structure of the Human CC Chemokine 2:  A Monomeric Representative of the CC Chemokine Subtype, [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemistry, 1999
HCC-2, a 66-amino acid residue human CC chemokine, was reported to induce chemotaxis on monocytes, T-lymphocytes, and eosinophils. The three-dimensional structure of HCC-2 has been determined by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and restrained molecular dynamics calculations on the basis of 871 experimental restraints.

HIV protective KIR3DL1/S1-HLA-B genotypes influence NK cell-mediated inhibition of HIV replication in autologous CD4 targets. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2014
Carriage of the genetic combination encoding a high expression inhibitory Killer Immunoglobulin-like Receptor (KIR)3DL1 with its ligand, HLA-B*57 (*h/*y+B*57) is associated with slower time to AIDS and better HIV viral load control than being a Bw6 ...

Chemokine-induced phosphorylation of CC chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Leukocyte Biology, 1999
Abstract The CC-chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5) mediates activation of T lymphocytes and macrophages by chemokines and is a major co-receptor for macrophage-tropic HIV-1 strains. Recently, it was shown that the natural CCR5 ligands RANTES, macrophage inflammatory protein-1á (MIP-1á), MIP-1β, and amino-terminal modifications of RANTES (Met ...
