CXCR7 Targeting and Its Major Disease Relevance [PDF]
Chemokine receptors are the target of small peptide chemokines. They play various important roles in physiological and pathological processes. CXCR7, later renamed ACKR3, is a non-classical seven transmembrane-spanning receptor whose function as a ...

CXCR7 impact on CXCL12 biology and disease
It is known that the chemokine receptor CXCR7 (RDC1) can be engaged by both chemokines CXCL12 (SDF-1) and CXCL11 (I-TAC), but the exact expression pattern and function of CXCR7 is controversial. CXCR7 expression seems to be enhanced during pathological inflammation and tumor development, and emerging data suggest this receptor is an attractive ...

CXCR7 functions as a scavenger for CXCL12 and CXCL11. [PDF]
BackgroundCXCR7 (RDC1), the recently discovered second receptor for CXCL12, is phylogenetically closely related to chemokine receptors, but fails to couple to G-proteins and to induce typical chemokine receptor mediated cellular responses.

Ubiquitination of CXCR7 controls receptor trafficking. [PDF]
The chemokine receptor CXCR7 binds CXCL11 and CXCL12 with high affinity, chemokines that were previously thought to bind exclusively to CXCR4 and CXCR3, respectively.

CXCR7 promoted proliferation, migration and invasion in HCC Cells by inactivating Hippo-YAP signaling [PDF]
Background CXCR7 (ACKR3) has been well-supported as a promoter of growth and metastasis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Both CXCR7 and Hippo signaling play roles in organ development.

Activation of CXCR7 exerts an inhibitory effect on adipogenesis through regulation of β-arrestin2/Wnt and AKT signalling [PDF]
CXCR7, an alternative receptor for the inflammatory chemokine SDF-1, is involved in cell proliferation and migration. Recent studies have reported that CXCR7 also plays a role in adipose tissue.

The GPCR Connection: Linking Alzheimer's Disease and Glioblastoma. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) and glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) are biologically distinct age‐related brain disorders with opposing clinical phenotypes. AD is characterised by progressive neurodegeneration and cognitive decline, whereas GBM is characterised by aggressive cellular proliferation and a poor prognosis.

Chemokine receptor CXCR7 antagonism ameliorates cardiac and renal fibrosis induced by mineralocorticoid excess [PDF]
Cardiorenal fibrosis is a common feature of chronic cardiovascular disease and recent data suggests that cytokines and chemokines may also drive fibrosis.
