Expression of chemokine receptors by subsets of neurons in the central nervous system.

TL;DR: Immunohistochemical analysis of the involved brain tissues from patients with Alzheimer's disease revealed expression of CXCR2 in the neuritic portion of plaques surrounding deposits of amyloid, suggesting that chemokines may play a role in reactive processes in normal neuronal function and neurodegenerative disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polyclonal antibody directed against human RANTES ameliorates disease in the Lewis rat adjuvant-induced arthritis model.

TL;DR: RANTES expression plays an important role in the disease since a polyclonal antibody to RANTES greatly ameliorated symptoms in animals induced for AIA and was found to be as efficacious as treatment with indomethacin, a non-steroidal anti inflammatory.
Journal ArticleDOI

Discovery of novel non-peptide CCR1 receptor antagonists.

TL;DR: A novel series of 4-hydroxypiperidines has been discovered by high throughput screening (HTS) which potently inhibits the binding of MIP-1alpha and RANTES to the recombinant human CCR1 chemokine receptor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Species selectivity of a small molecule antagonist for the CCR1 chemokine receptor

TL;DR: The species specificity of a small molecule antagonist for the human CCR1 chemokine receptor, 2-2-diphenyl-5-(4-chlorophenyl)piperidin-1-yl)valeronitrile (CCR1 antagonist 1), has been examined and suggested that the antagonist binding site is well-conserved in rabbit, marmoset and human C CR1, but not in mouse CCR 1.
