CCR1 Antagonists: What Have We Learned From Clinical Trials

TL;DR: Evidence that supported the role of CCR1 in these diseases, the results from clinical trials, and perspectives on what has been learned from these trials for potential application / consideration to other studies with chemokine receptor antagonists are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Distinct roles for IP-10/CXCL10 in three animal models, Theiler's virus infection, EAE, and MHV infection, for multiple sclerosis: Implication of differing roles for IP-10

TL;DR: A difference in the pathogenesis of TMEV infection from that of two other animal models for MS, mouse hepatitis virus infection and experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE), where blocking of IP-10 resulted in clinical and histological improvement with suppression of antigen specific lymphoproliferation is likely reflected.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interaction between CXCR4 and CCL20 pathways regulates tumor growth.

TL;DR: A role for CCL20 is revealed in CXCR4-dependent and -independent tumor growth and a therapeutic potential for C CL20 and CCR6 antagonists in the treatment of CX CR4- and CCL 20-dependent malignancies is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

CXCR4 chemokine receptor antagonists: perspectives in SCLC.

TL;DR: Targeting the CXCR4–CXCL12 axis is a novel, attractive therapeutic approach in SCLC and the current status of the preclinical and clinical development of CX CR4 antagonists is summarized.

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.
