Molecular insights into intrinsic transducer-coupling bias in the CXCR4-CXCR7 system
Nature Communications, 2023 Chemokine receptors constitute an important subfamily of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), and they are critically involved in a broad range of immune response mechanisms.

Solubilization of the Chemokine Receptor CXCR4
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2000 The chemokine receptor CXCR4 was solubilized from the human T-cell line CEM by using the detergent n-dodecyl-beta-maltoside (DDM) and cholesteryl hemisuccinate ester (CHS). Binding studies with (125)I-SDF-1alpha revealed a dissociation constant of 5.33 nM and a receptor density (B(max)) of 2.68 pmol/mg in CEM membranes at 4 degrees C.

Emerging Importance of Chemokine Receptor CXCR4 and Its Ligand in Liver Disease
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Chemokine receptors are members of the G protein-coupled receptor superfamily, which together with chemokine ligands form chemokine networks to regulate various cellular functions, immune and physiological processes.

Agonists for the Chemokine Receptor CXCR4
ACS Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2011 The development of agonists for the chemokine receptor CXCR4 could provide promising therapeutic candidates. On the basis of previously forwarded two site model of chemokine-receptor interactions, we hypothesized that linking the agonistic N-terminus of SDF-1 to the T140 backbone would yield new high-affinity agonists of CXCR4.

Anterograde Trafficking of CXCR4 and CCR2 Receptors in a Prostate Cancer Cell Line
Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2013 Background: Most prostate cancer-related deaths result from metastasis. CXCR4 and CCR2 are known to govern cellular processes resulting in cell migration, proliferation and survival.

The role of chemokine receptor CXCR4 in lung cancer [PDF]
Cancer Biology & Therapy, 2010 Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. Small cell lung cancer (SCLC), which comprises 15% of all lung cancers, is almost exclusively due to smoking and is highly aggressive due to early widespread metastasis. While combination chemotherapy has lead to modest improvements in outcome, the five-year overall survival for SCLC remains ...

The Role of the CXCL12/CXCR4/ACKR3 Axis in Autoimmune Diseases
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2019 Chemokine receptors are members of the G protein-coupled receptor superfamily. These receptors are intimately involved in cell movement, and thus play a critical role in several physiological and pathological situations that require the precise ...
