Glia Cells Control Olfactory Neurogenesis by Fine-Tuning CXCL12
Olfaction depends on lifelong production of sensory neurons from CXCR4 expressing neurogenic stem cells. Signaling by CXCR4 depends on the concentration of CXCL12, CXCR4’s principal ligand.

Chemokines are a large family of structurally related chemoattractive cytokines, which have four conserved cysteines forming two disulfide bonds, and act through seven-transmembrane-spanning receptors coupled to heterotrimeric GTP-binding proteins (G-protein-coupled receptors).

T lymphocytes migrate upstream after completing the leukocyte adhesion cascade
The leukocyte adhesion cascade is of critical importance for both the maintenance of immune homeostasis and the ability of immune cells to perform effector functions.

Effects of cognate, non-cognate and synthetic CXCR4 and ACKR3 ligands on human lung endothelial cell barrier function. [PDF]
Recent evidence suggests that chemokine CXCL12, the cognate agonist of chemokine receptors CXCR4 and ACKR3, reduces thrombin-mediated impairment of endothelial barrier function.

CXC chemokine receptor 7 (CXCR7) is a G-protein-coupled receptor that signals through the β-arrestin pathway. Its ligands include interferon-inducible T cell α chemoattractant (CXCL11) and stromal cell-derived factor-1 (CXCL12).

The CXCL12/CXCR7 signaling axis, isoforms, circadian rhythms, and tumor cellular composition dictate gradients in tissue. [PDF]
Chemokine CXCL12 gradients drive chemotaxis in a CXCR4-dependent mechanism and have been implicated in cancer metastasis. While CXCL12 gradients are typically studied in organized, defined environments, the tumor microenvironment is disorganized. In vivo,
