Hepatic fibrosis develops as a response to chronic liver injury and almost exclusively occurs in a proinflammatory environment. However, the role of inflammatory mediators in fibrogenic responses of the liver is only poorly understood. We therefore investigated the role of CC chemokines and their receptors in hepatic fibrogenesis. The CC chemokines MIP-1alpha, MIP-1beta, and RANTES and their re...
Background: Ligands of chemokine receptor CCR5, including MIP-1a, MIP-1b, and RANTES, have been implicated in rheumatoid arthritis. Objective: To test whether CCR5 d32 polymorphism has a negative association with rheumatoid arthritis in a New Zealand cohort. Methods: 516 white patients with rheumatoid arthritis and 985 healthy controls were investigated by PCR amplification of the region flanki...
BACKGROUND CCR5 and CCR2 gene polymorphisms (SNPs) have been associated with protection against HIV transmission in adults and with delayed progression to AIDS. The CCR5 Delta32 deletion and SNP -2459G are associated with reduced expression of the CCR5 protein. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS We investigated the association between infant CCR2/CCR5 diplotype and HIV mother to child transmissio...
The CC-chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5) is a receptor for various proinflammatory chemokines, and a deletion variant of the CCR5 gene (CCR5 Delta 32) leads to deficiency of the receptor. We hypothesized that CCR5 Delta 32 modulates inflammation-driven mortality in patients with ESRD. We studied the interaction between CCR5 genotype and levels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) in 603 inc...
CC Chemokine Receptor 5 (CCR5) is an important mediator of chemotaxis and the primary coreceptor for HIV-1. A recent report by other researchers suggested that primary T cells harbor pools of intracellular CCR5. With the use of a series of complementary techniques to measure CCR5 expression (antibody labeling, Western blot, quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction), we estab...
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) entry is mediated by the consecutive interaction of the envelope glycoprotein gp120 with CD4 and a coreceptor such as CCR5 or CXCR4. The CCR5 coreceptor is used by the most commonly transmitted HIV-1 strains that often persist throughout the course of infection. Compounds targeting CCR5-mediated entry are a novel class of drugs being developed to trea...
C-C chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5) is the primary coreceptor for human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection. Native chemokines that bind to CCR5 inhibit HIV-1 infection, albeit weakly, but chemically modified chemokines inhibit infection more efficiently. We have investigated the inhibitory mechanism of three N-terminally modified RANTES variants (AOP-, NNY-, and PSC-RANTES) with the MT...
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) non-syncytium-inducing (NSI) strains predominantly use the chemokine receptor CCR5, while syncytium-inducing (SI) strains use CXCR4. In vitro, SI isolates infect and replicate in a range of CD4(+) CXCR4(+) T-cell lines, whereas NSI isolates usually do not. Here we describe three NSI strains that are able to infect two CD4(+) T-cell lines, Molt4 and Su...
The chemokine receptor, CCR5, is used as a human immunodeficiency virus coreceptor in combination with CD4 during transmission and early infection. CCR5 has been shown to be palmitoylated and targeted to cholesterol- and sphingolipid-rich membrane microdomains termed "lipid rafts." However, the role of cholesterol and lipid rafts on chemokine binding and signaling through CCR5 remains unknown. ...
It has recently been suggested that the chemokine receptor (CCR5) is required for bone marrow (BM) derived endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) mediated angiogenesis. Here we show that suppression of either cancer cell produced CCL5, or host CCR5 leads to distinctive vascular and tumor growth defects in breast cancer. Surprisingly, CCR5 restoration in the BM alone was not sufficient to rescue the ...
