CXC Chemokines in Angiogenesis Related to Pulmonary Fibrosis
Chest, 2002Angiogenesis, defined as the growth of new capillaries from preexisting vessels, is a pervasive biological phenomenon that is at the core of many physiologic and pathologic processes. An opposing balance of angiogenic and angiostatic factors regulates angiogenesis.

The role of CXC chemokine ligand 4/CXC chemokine receptor 3-B in breast cancer progression
Biotechnic & Histochemistry, 2018Chemokines and their receptors participate in the development of cancers by enhancing tumor cell proliferation, angiogenesis, invasion, metastasis and penetration of tumor immune cells. It remains unclear whether CXC chemokine ligand 4 (CXCL4)/CXC chemokine receptor 3-B (CXCR3-B) can be used as an independent molecular marker for establishing prognosis

CXC Chemokines in Cancer Angiogenesis
2009Chemokines were first described for their ability to recruit leukocytes, but their biological role has now been recognized in many other biological processes. Angiogenesis, or the process of new blood vessel growth, is critical to many physiologic and pathologic processes, including tumorigenesis.

The Emerging Role of CXC Chemokines And Their Receptors in Cancer
Future Medicinal Chemistry, 2012Chemokines and their receptors have a multifaceted role in tumor biology and are implicated in nearly all aspects of cancer growth, survival and dissemination. Modulation of the interaction between chemokines and their cell surface receptor is, therefore, a promising area for the development of new cancer medicines.

The expression and role of CXC chemokines in colorectal cancer
Cytokine & Growth Factor Reviews, 2011Cancer is a life-threatening disease world-wide and colorectal cancer is the second common cause of cancer mortality. The interaction between tumor cells and stromal cells plays a crucial role in tumor initiation and progression and is partially mediated by chemokines.

Assignment of the mouse and cow CXC chemokine genes
Cytogenetic and Genome Research, 1998Gene specific PCR primers were constructed for five mouse and three bovine CXC chemokine genes. The mouse genes were assigned using SSCP analyses of the Jackson BSS backcross panel to two groups on chromosome 5. One group containing <i>Gro1</i> and <i>Mip2</i> cosegregated with reference markers <i>Alb1</i> and <i&

CXC Chemokines in Angiogenesis Relevant to Chronic Fibroproliferation
Current Drug Target -Inflammation & Allergy, 2005The CXC chemokines are an unique family of cytokines known for their ability to behave in a disparate manner in the regulation of angiogenesis. The mechanisms for the different activity in regulating angiogenesis by members of this chemokine family is related to the following: 1) the presence or absence of the structural/functional motif (Glutamic acid-

Cancer CXC chemokine networks and tumour angiogenesis
European Journal of Cancer, 2006Chemokines have pleiotropic effects in regulating immunity, angiogenesis, stem cell trafficking, and mediating organ-specific metastases of cancer. In the context of angiogenesis, the CXC chemokine family is a unique group of cytokines known for their ability to behave in a disparate manner in the regulation of angiogenesis.

Chemokine CXC Receptor 4: An Evolutionary Approach
Immunopharmacology and Immunotoxicology, 2006Selected segments of the nucleotide sequences of the human 18S rRNA and the human formyl peptide receptor 1 mRNA exhibit structural similarities that are unlikely to be due simply to chance. Herein we analyze the structural similarities between the human 18S rRNA gene and the vertebrate chemokine CXC receptor 4 (CXCR4) gene that encodes a class A ...
