Cxc Chemokine Receptor 5 Expression Defines Follicular Homing T Cells with B Cell Helper Function

TL;DR: These properties portray CXCR5+ T cells as a distinct memory T cell subset with B cell helper function, designated here as follicular B helper T cells (TFH).
Journal ArticleDOI

CXCR4: a key receptor in the crosstalk between tumor cells and their microenvironment.

TL;DR: Observations reveal that CXCR4 is an important molecule involved in the spread and progression of a variety of different tumors, and that CxCR4 antagonists, although initially developed for treatment of AIDS, actually may become effective agents for the treatment of neoplastic disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

The chemokine SDF-1/CXCL12 binds to and signals through the orphan receptor RDC1 in T lymphocytes.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that RDC1 is expressed in T lymphocytes and that CXCL12-promoted chemotaxis is inhibited by an anti-RDC1 monoclonal antibody, and it is shown that CxCL12, the only known natural ligand for CXCR4, binds to and signals through R DC1.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neutrophil chemotaxis in linear and complex gradients of interleukin-8 formed in a microfabricated device

TL;DR: A device microfabricated by soft lithography and consisting of a network of microfluidic channels that can generate spatially and temporally controlled gradients of chemotactic factors is described, providing a robust method to investigate migratory cells under a variety of conditions not accessible to study by earlier techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemokines in cutaneous wound healing.

TL;DR: This review will focus preferentially on the role of chemokines duringskin wound healing and intends to provide an update on the multiplefunctions of individual chemokine functions during the phases of woundrepair.

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.
