Lactobacilli and streptococci induce inflammatory chemokine production in human macrophages that stimulates Th1 cell chemotaxis

TL;DR: Bacteria‐stimulated macrophage supernatants induced the migration of T helper cell type 1 (Th1) cells, suggesting that in human macrophages, these bacteria can stimulate efficient inflammatory chemokine gene expression including those that recruit Th1 cells to the site of inflammation.

Chemokines CXCL10 and CCL2: differential involvement in intrathecal inflammation in multiple sclerosis

TL;DR: A serial analysis of CSF CXCL10 and CCL2 concentrations in 22 patients with attacks of MS or acute optic neuritis treated with methylprednisolone and 26 patients treated with placebo in two randomized controlled trials is reported, suggesting differential involvement of CX CL10 andCCL2 in CNS inflammation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemokines and their Receptors: Multifaceted Roles in Cancer Progression and Potential Value as Cancer Prognostic Markers.

TL;DR: The essential roles of the complex network of chemokines and their receptors in cancer progression are summarized and the potential value of the chemokine system as a cancer prognostic marker is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cutting Edge: Induction of Follicular Homing Precedes Effector Th Cell Development

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the CXCR5 is a marker for recently activated memory CD4+ T cells, which unequivocally defines pre-effector memory T cells generated during ongoing immune responses.
Book ChapterDOI

Soluble mediators of inflammation during tumor development.

TL;DR: Clinical and experimental data implicating proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines as important potentiators of carcinogenesis are focused on.

Two subsets of memory T lymphocytes with distinct homing potentials and effector functions

TL;DR: It is shown that expression of CCR7, a chemokine receptor that controls homing to secondary lymphoid organs, divides human memory T cells into two functionally distinct subsets, which are named central memory (TCM) and effector memory (TEM).
Journal ArticleDOI

Function of the chemokine receptor CXCR4 in haematopoiesis and in cerebellar development

TL;DR: This is the first demonstration of the involvement of a G-protein-coupled chemokine receptor in neuronal cell migration and patterning in the central nervous system and may be important for designing strategies to block HIV entry into cells and for understanding mechanisms of pathogenesis in AIDS dementia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Defects of B-cell lymphopoiesis and bone-marrow myelopoiesis in mice lacking the CXC chemokine PBSF/SDF-1

TL;DR: It is shown that the chemokine PBSF/SDF-1 has several essential functions in development, including B-cell lymphopoiesis and bone-marrow myelopoiedis and a cardiac ventricular septal defect.
Journal ArticleDOI

CCR7 coordinates the primary immune response by establishing functional microenvironments in secondary lymphoid organs.

TL;DR: In this paper, the chemokine receptor CCR7 was identified as an important organizer of the primary immune response in mice, and severely delayed kinetics regarding the antibody response and lack contact sensitivity and delayed type hypersensitivity reactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

A new class of membrane-bound chemokine with a CX3C motif

TL;DR: The structure, biochemical features, tissue distribution and chromosomal localization of CX3C chemokine all indicate that it represents a unique class of chemokines that may constitute part of the molecular control of leukocyte traffic at the endothelium.
