  2. Chemokine receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemokine_receptor

    Chemokine receptors are cytokine receptors found on the surface of certain cells that interact with a type of cytokine called a chemokine. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] There have been 20 distinct chemokine receptors discovered in humans. [ 3 ]

  3. CCL17 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CCL17

    This chemokine is very important in the human body’s response to cancers. While it sometimes allows cancer to invade more rapidly, it more often helps the human body fight cancer. [6] Some cancers that form tumors, such as breast cancer, produce CCL17 which draws T regulatory cells into the area, enhancing the cancer’s ability to invade. [6]

  4. Cytokine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytokine

    Chemokine receptors, two of which act as binding proteins for HIV (CD4 and CCR5), also belong to this family. [citation needed] Interleukin-17 receptor (IL-17R) family, which shows little homology with any other cytokine receptor family. Structural motifs conserved between members of this family include: an extracellular fibronectin III-like ...

  5. Chemokine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemokine

    Chemokines (from Ancient Greek χῠμείᾱ (khumeíā) ' alchemy ' and κῑ́νησῐς (kī́nēsis) ' movement '), or chemotactic cytokines, are a family of small cytokines or signaling proteins secreted by cells that induce directional movement of leukocytes, as well as other cell types, including endothelial and epithelial cells.

  6. CCL2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CCL2

    CCL2 is a small cytokine that belongs to the CC chemokine family. CCL2 tightly regulates cellular mechanics [ 5 ] and thereby recruits monocytes , memory T cells , and dendritic cells to the sites of inflammation produced by either tissue injury or infection .

  7. CXCL9 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CXCL9

    Chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 9 (CXCL9) is a small cytokine belonging to the CXC chemokine family that is also known as monokine induced by gamma interferon (MIG). The CXCL9 is one of the chemokine which plays role to induce chemotaxis , promote differentiation and multiplication of leukocytes , and cause tissue extravasation.

  8. CXCL1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CXCL1

    CXCL1 exists as both monomer and dimer and both forms are able to bind chemokine receptor CXCR2. [11] However, CXCL1 chemokine is able to dimerize only at higher (micromolar) concentrations and its concentrations are only nanomolar or picomolar upon normal conditions, which means that the form of WT CXCL1 is more likely monomeric while dimeric CXCL1 is present only during infection or injury.

  9. CXCL5 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CXCL5

    The protein encoded by this gene, CXCL5 is a small cytokine belonging to the CXC chemokine family that is also known as epithelial-derived neutrophil-activating peptide 78 (ENA-78). It is produced following stimulation of cells with the inflammatory cytokines interleukin-1 or tumor necrosis factor-alpha. [7]
