Journal ArticleDOI

Chemokines in the recruitment and shaping of the leukocyte infiltrate of tumors.

TL;DR: Tumor-associated macrophages and dendritic cells in tumors have the properties of a polarized M2 population and are a key component of inflammatory circuits which promote tumor growth and progression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cutting edge: differential chemokine production by myeloid and plasmacytoid dendritic cells.

TL;DR: The high production of CCR4 ligands by M-DCs suggests their capacity to selectively recruit at sites of inflammation T cells with regulatory properties or with a Th2 phenotype, whereas P- DCs, by preferentially secreting CCR1/CCR5 ligands, would mostly recruit effector T cells and, in particular, Th1-type cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

New nomenclature for atypical chemokine receptors.

TL;DR: Evidence indicates that like ACKR3, other ACKRs have preserved the ability to activate b-arrestin-dependent signaling, which is required for chemokine internalization and therefore have been provisionally assigned ACKR designations and numbers that remain reserved at present.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cutting edge: scavenging of inflammatory CC chemokines by the promiscuous putatively silent chemokine receptor D6.

TL;DR: The results indicate that D6 acts as an inflammatory chemokine scavenging nonactivatory decoy receptors and suggest that in lymphatic vessels D6 may function as a gatekeeper for inflammatory CC chemokines, by clearing them and preventing excessive diffusion via afferent lymphatics to lymph nodes.
