The multifaceted role of XCL1 in health and disease [PDF]
AbstractThe chemokine XC motif chemokine ligand 1 (XCL1) is an unusually specialized member of a conserved family of around 50 small, secreted proteins that are best known for their ability to stimulate the directional migration of cells. All chemokines adopt a very similar folded structure that binds a specific G protein‐coupled receptor (GPCR), and ...

Structure-Function Relationship of XCL1
Einleitung Chemokine vermitteln die Interaktion von Immunzellen. Das Chemokin XCL1 wird von aktivierten CD8+ T-Zellen und NK-Zellen sezerniert und besitzt die für Chemokine typische Tertiärstruktur, bestehend aus einem N-Terminus, einem antiparallelen β ...

A novel role for lymphotactin (XCL1) signaling in the nervous system: XCL1 acts via its receptor XCR1 to increase trigeminal neuronal excitability [PDF]
Chemokines are known to have a role in the nervous system, influencing a range of processes including the development of chronic pain. To date there are very few studies describing the functions of the chemokine lymphotactin (XCL1) or its receptor ...

Expression and Function of the C-Class Chemokine Lymphotactin (XCL1) in Wegener’s Granulomatosis [PDF]
Objective. In Wegener's granulomatosis (WG), vasculitic lesions are characterized by prominent infiltration of polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) and T cells, but underlying pathogenic mechanisms remain to be defined.

The Identification and Distribution of Cattle XCR1 and XCL1 among Peripheral Blood Cells: New Insights into the Design of Dendritic Cells Targeted Veterinary Vaccine. [PDF]
The chemokine (C motif) receptor 1 (XCR1) and its ligandXCL1 have been intensively studied in the mouse and human immune systems. Here, we determined the molecular characteristics of cattle XCR1 and XCL1 and their distribution among peripheral blood ...

Genetic Regulation of DNA Methylation and Its Mediating Role in Blood Pressure: A Genome-Wide Twin Study. [PDF]
Using 1056 Chinese twins, we estimated DNA methylation heritability (mean h2 = 18.3%) and genetic correlations with blood pressure. Association analyses identified 914 SBP‐related and 624 DBP‐related CpGs, with attenuation within monozygotic pairs. Integrating mQTL, GWAS, eQTL, and pQTL data identified bidirectional CpG–blood pressure relationships and

Multi-layered functional genomics prioritizes candidate effectors and regulatory mechanisms of ankylosing spondylitis [PDF]
BackgroundAnkylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory arthropathy with heritability estimated at approximately 90%, yet the effector genes and regulatory mechanisms beyond the well-established HLA-B*27 association remain incompletely defined ...
