Optic neuritis: chemokine receptor CXCR3 and its ligands [PDF]
To study the involvement of the chemokine receptor CXCR3 and its ligands (CXCL9/Mig, CXCL10/IP-10, CXCL11/ITAC) in optic neuritis (ON).30 patients with ON and 10 non-inflammatory neurological disease controls were included. The patients underwent a phlebotomy, lumbar puncture, and MRI scan. CXCR3 expression was studied on blood and cerebrospinal fluid (

CHEMOKINE RECEPTORS AT DISTINCT DIFFERENTIATION STAGES OF T-HELPERS FROM PERIPHERAL BLOOD
Expression of chemokine receptors (CCR4, CCR6, CXCR3 and CXCR5) on T-helper (Th) cells at various levels of differentiation in a group of healthy volunteers (n = 52) was assessed on the basis of CD45RA and CD62L expression, using the eight-color flow ...

Pharmacological characterization of a small‐molecule agonist for the chemokine receptor CXCR3 [PDF]
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSEThe chemokine receptor CXCR3 is a GPCR found predominantly on activated T cells. CXCR3 is activated by three endogenous peptides; CXCL9, CXCL10 and CXCL11. Recently, a small‐molecule agonist, VUF10661, has been reported in the literature and synthesized in our laboratory.

Ovarian hormones and high-fat diet duration distinctively modulate hypothalamic chemokine profile. [PDF]
Abstract Excessive intake of saturated fats triggers inflammation in the hypothalamus, a key regulator of energy balance. In the chronic phase of this inflammatory response, bone marrow‐derived and lymphoid cells are chemoattracted to this region, partially mitigating high‐fat diet (HFD)‐induced metabolic impairments.

CXCR3, CXCR5, CXCR6, and CXCR7 in Diabetes [PDF]
Many studies have suggested that CXCR3, CXCR5, CXCR6 and CXCR7 chemokine receptors are determinant in type 1 diabetes (T1D), expecially in autoimmunity and β-cell destruction.

A toolbox of molecular photoswitches to modulate the CXCR3 chemokine receptor with light [PDF]
We report a detailed structure-activity relationship for the scaffold of VUF16216, a compound we have previously communicated as a small-molecule efficacy photoswitch for the peptidergic chemokine GPCR CXCR3. A total of 31 photoswitchable azobenzene ligands was prepared through various synthetic strategies and multistep syntheses.

Chemokine Receptors and Phagocyte Biology in Zebrafish. [PDF]
Phagocytes are highly motile immune cells that ingest and clear microbial invaders, harmful substances, and dying cells. Their function is critically dependent on the expression of chemokine receptors, a class of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs ...
