The Scientific World Journal, 2007 Chemokines are a family of polypeptides that direct the migration of leukocytestoward a site of infection. They play a major role in autoimmune disease and chemokine receptors have recently been found to mediate HIV-1 fusion.

Frontiers in Immunology, 2012 Chemoattractant cytokines or chemokines constitute a family of structurally related proteins found in vertebrates, bacteria or viruses. So far, 48 chemokines genes have been identified in humans, which bind to around 20 chemokine receptors.

Frontiers in Immunology, 2014 ABSTRACTIn most organs, leukocyte attachment to the endothelium of blood vessels requires capture and rolling before firm adhesion is initiated by integrin activation and/or redistribution, which can be initiated by immobilized chemokines binding their cognate receptors on rolling cells.

Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2015 It is now well appreciated that chemokines play a fundamental role in various aspects of CVDs (Figure). Although numerous features of chemokine biology in relation to CVD remain to be elucidated, recent studies including those published i ATVB and highlighted herein have substantially contributed to our current knowledge on chemokines.

Nasal Lipopolysaccharide Challenge and Cytokine Measurement Reflects Innate Mucosal Immune Responsiveness [PDF]
, 2015 BackgroundPractical methods of monitoring innate immune mucosal responsiveness are lacking. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a component of the cell wall of Gram negative bacteria and a potent activator of Toll-like receptor (TLR)-4.

Chemokines: What chemokine is that? [PDF]
Current Biology, 1997 The discovery of a new and unusual member of the chemokine family illustrates the importance of chemoattractant diversity in the regulation of leukocyte movement through the body. The chemokines are now divisible into four clearly defined subgroups on the basis of structural and functional properties.

A guide to chemokines and their receptors [PDF]
, 2018 The chemokines (or chemotactic cytokines) are a large family of small, secreted proteins that signal through cell surface G‐protein coupled heptahelical chemokine receptors.
