Journal ArticleDOI

Cytokines and chemokines in testicular inflammation: A brief review.

TL;DR: The knowledge of immune‐germ and somatic testicular cell interactions will contribute to the understanding of the mechanisms by which chronic inflammatory conditions of the testis can disrupt the process of spermatogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemokine receptor trio: CXCR3, CXCR4 and CXCR7 crosstalk via CXCL11 and CXCL12.

TL;DR: It is important to consider the interactions and crosstalk between these three chemokine receptors and their ligand mediated signaling cascades for the development of effective anti-cancer therapies.
Journal ArticleDOI

B cell attracting chemokine 1 (CXCL13) and its receptor CXCR5 are expressed in normal and aberrant gut associated lymphoid tissue.

TL;DR: BCA-1 plays an important role not only in the formation of normal GALT but also in the generation of aberrant lymphoid tissue in inflammatory bowel disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antagonist of monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 ameliorates the initiation and progression of lupus nephritis and renal vasculitis in MRL/lpr mice.

TL;DR: It is shown that the MCP-1 antagonist ameliorated the initiation and progression of lupus nephritis and of renal vasculitis, which might provide a new approach to the treatment of the disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

The immunotoxicity of graphene oxides and the effect of PVP-coating

TL;DR: PVP-coating GO possesses good immunological biocompatibility and immunoenhancement effects in vitro, and is likely to be an available candidate of immunoadjuvant in the future.

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.
