The atypical chemokine receptor Ackr2 constrains NK cell migratory activity and promotes metastasis [PDF]
Chemokines have been shown to be essential players in a range of cancer contexts. In this study, we demonstrate that mice deficient in the atypical chemokine receptor Ackr2 display impaired development of metastasis in vivo in both cell line and ...

Chemokines and chemokine receptors: A new strategy for breast cancer therapy
Chemokines and chemokine receptors not only participate in the development of tissue differentiation, hematopoiesis, inflammation, and immune regulation but also play an important role in the process of tumor development.

Targeting Chemokine—Glycosaminoglycan Interactions to Inhibit Inflammation
Leukocyte migration into tissues depends on the activity of chemokines that form concentration gradients to guide leukocytes to a specific site. Interaction of chemokines with their specific G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) on leukocytes induces ...

CCL2: An Important Mediator Between Tumor Cells and Host Cells in Tumor Microenvironment
Tumor microenvironment (TME) formation is a major cause of immunosuppression. The TME consists of a considerable number of macrophages and stromal cells that have been identified in multiple tumor types.

Chemokines and Chemokine Receptors in Multiple Sclerosis [PDF]
Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune disease with classical traits of demyelination, axonal damage, and neurodegeneration. The migration of autoimmune T cells and macrophages from blood to central nervous system as well as the destruction of blood brain barrier are thought to be the major processes in the development of this disease.

Microarray analyses demonstrate the involvement of type i interferons in psoriasiform pathology development in D6-deficient mice [PDF]
The inflammatory response is normally limited by mechanisms regulating its resolution. In the absence of resolution, inflammatory pathologies can emerge, resulting in substantial morbidity and mortality.

Elevated ACKR2 expression is a common feature of inflammatory arthropathies [PDF]
Objectives. Chemokines are essential contributors to leucocyte accumulation at sites of inflammatory pathology. Interfering with chemokine or chemokine receptor function therefore represents a plausible therapeutic option.

Chemokines, Chemokine Receptors, and Allograft Rejection [PDF]
Chemokines are pivotal mediators in allograft rejection by virtue of their activity as regulators of leukocyte movement, adhesion, and effector function. Because the regulation of effector cell infiltration is complex, it is difficult to dissect the relative role of each chemokine in the inflammatory processes leading to allograft rejection, especially

Chemokines Modulate Immune Surveillance in Tumorigenesis, Metastasis, and Response to Immunotherapy
Chemokines are small secreted proteins that orchestrate migration and positioning of immune cells within the tissues. Chemokines are essential for the function of the immune system.
