Understanding the immunoangiostatic CXC chemokine network [PDF]
Cardiovascular Research, 2008 Chemokines, originally discovered as mediators of directional migration of immune cells to sites of inflammation and injury, have a function beyond their role in leukocyte chemotaxis. Indeed, they participate in organ development, angiogenesis, tumourigenesis and, more importantly, in the immune response.

Regulation of Expression of CXC Chemokines in Cultured Hepatocytes [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Public Health, 2005 Chemokines are low molecular weight proteins (8-17 kDa). They are classified in four distinct groups as CXC, CC, CX3C and C. Depending on the presence or absence of a motif called ELR (Arg-Leu-Glu) before the first cysteine residue in their structure ...

CXC Chemokines in Cancer Angiogenesis and Metastases [PDF]
, 2010 The tumor microenvironment is extremely complex that depends on tumor cell interaction with the responding host cells. Angiogenesis, or new blood vessel growth from preexisting vasculature, is a preeminent feature of successful tumor growth of all solid tumors.

The role of CXC chemokines in pulmonary fibrosis [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2007 The CXC chemokine family is a pleiotropic family of cytokines that are involved in promoting the trafficking of various leukocytes, in regulating angiogenesis and vascular remodeling, and in promoting the mobilization and trafficking of mesenchymal progenitor cells such as fibrocytes.

The role of CXCL family members in different diseases
Cell Death Discovery, 2023 Chemokines are a large family mediating a lot of biological behaviors including chemotaxis, tumor growth, angiogenesis and so on. As one member of this family, CXC subfamily possesses the same ability.

Discovery and characterization of a neutralizing pan-ELR+CXC chemokine monoclonal antibody
mAbs, 2020 CXCR1 and CXCR2 signaling play a critical role in neutrophil migration, angiogenesis, and tumorigenesis and are therefore an attractive signaling axis to target in a variety of indications.

Frontiers in Oncology, 2021 The CXC chemokines belong to a family which includes 17 different CXC members. Accumulating evidence suggests that CXC chemokines regulate tumor cell proliferation, invasion, and metastasis in various types of cancers by influencing the tumor ...

Interferon-inducible CXC chemokines directly contribute to host defense against inhalational anthrax in a murine model of infection. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2010 Chemokines have been found to exert direct, defensin-like antimicrobial activity in vitro, suggesting that, in addition to orchestrating cellular accumulation and activation, chemokines may contribute directly to the innate host response against ...
