Sopping up chemokine
A ctin fi laments lie in a wide range of orientations in the leading edge of a migrating cell, according to images from Stefan Koestler, Victor Small (Austrian Academy of Sciences, Vienna, Austria), and colleagues. What looks like disorder might help organize both protrusion at the front and retraction behind. The work casts doubt on the textbook view of the network in the very front of a migra...
متن کاملUp-regulation of chemokine ligand 20 in chronic rhinosinusitis.
OBJECTIVES To investigate the up-regulation of chemokine ligand 20 (CCL20) in chronic rhinosinusitis mucosa and to localize the distribution of CCL20 in the human paranasal sinus mucosa. DESIGN Prospective study. SETTING Tertiary academic institution. PATIENTS Ten patients who underwent functional endoscopic sinus surgery for chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps and 10 normal contr...
متن کاملEpigenetic up-regulation of C-C chemokine receptor 7 and C-X-C chemokine receptor 4 expression in melanoma cells.
Histone deacetylation and DNA methylation establish epigenetic modifications, which through chromatin remodeling may result in gene silencing. We hypothesized that chemokine receptors C-C chemokine receptor 7 (CCR7) and C-X-C chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) on melanoma cells undergo epigenetic regulation. We investigated whether a histone deacetylase inhibitor and a demethylating agent influence C...
متن کاملMurine CCR9, a chemokine receptor for thymus-expressed chemokine that is up-regulated following pre-TCR signaling.
Chemokines are likely to play an important role in regulating the trafficking of developing T cells within the thymus. By using anti-CD3varepsilon treatment of recombinase-activating gene 2 (Rag2-/-) mice to mimic pre-TCR signaling and drive thymocyte development to the double positive stage, we have identified murine GPR-9-6 as a chemokine receptor whose expression is strongly induced followin...
متن کاملChemokine sequestration by atypical chemokine receptors.
Leucocyte migration is essential for robust immune and inflammatory responses, and plays a critical role in many human diseases. Chemokines, a family of small secreted protein chemoattractants, are of fundamental importance in this process, directing leucocyte trafficking by signalling through heptahelical G-protein-coupled receptors expressed by the migrating cells. However, several mammalian ...
