The Role of CXC Chemokines in Cancer Progression

open access: yesCancers, 2022
CXC chemokines are small chemotactic and secreted cytokines. Studies have shown that CXC chemokines are dysregulated in multiple types of cancer and are closely correlated with tumor progression. The CXC chemokine family has a dual function in tumor development, either tumor-promoting or tumor-suppressive depending on the context of cellular signaling.

Regulation of Expression of CXC Chemokines in Cultured Hepatocytes [PDF]

open access: yesIranian 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 ...

Epigenetics underpinning the regulation of the CXC (ELR+) chemokines in non-small cell lung cancer. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
BACKGROUND:Angiogenesis may play a role in the pathogenesis of Non-Small Cell Lung cancer (NSCLC). The CXC (ELR(+)) chemokine family are powerful promoters of the angiogenic response.

The role of proinflammatory cytokines and CXC chemokines (CXCL1–CXCL16) in the progression of prostate cancer: insights on their therapeutic management

open access: yesCellular & Molecular Biology Letters
Reproductive cancers are malignancies that develop in the reproductive organs. One of the leading cancers affecting the male reproductive system on a global scale is prostate cancer (PCa). The negative consequences of PCa metastases endure and are severe,

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 ...
