n-Nonanoyl-CC chemokine ligand 14, a potent CC chemokine ligand 14 analogue that prevents the recruitment of eosinophils in allergic airway inflammation.
CCR3 is responsible for tissue infiltration of eosinophils, basophils, mast cells, and Th2 cells, particularly in allergic diseases. In this context, CCR3 has emerged as a target for the treatment of allergic asthma. It is well known that the N-terminal domain of chemokines is crucial for receptor binding and, in particular, its activation. Based on this background, we investigated a number of ...
متن کاملCC chemokine ligand 1 promotes recruitment of eosinophils but not Th2 cells during the development of allergic airways disease.
One of the characteristic features of allergic asthma is recruitment of large numbers of inflammatory cells including eosinophils and Th2 lymphocytes to the lung. This influx of inflammatory cells is thought to be a controlled and coordinated process mediated by chemokines and their receptors. It is thought that distinct, differential expression of chemokine receptors allows selective migration...
متن کاملLiver-expressed chemokine/CC chemokine ligand 16 attracts eosinophils by interacting with histamine H4 receptor.
Liver-expressed chemokine (LEC)/CCL16 is a human CC chemokine that is constitutively expressed by the liver parenchymal cells and present in the normal plasma at high concentrations. Previous studies have shown that CCL16 is a low-affinity ligand for CCR1, CCR2, CCR5, and CCR8 and attracts monocytes and T cells. Recently, a novel histamine receptor termed type 4 (H4) has been identified and sho...
متن کاملPulmonary expression of CXC chemokine ligand 13, CC chemokine ligand 19, and CC chemokine ligand 21 is essential for local immunity to influenza.
CXC chemokine ligand 13 (CXCL13), CC chemokine ligand 21 (CCL21), and CCL19 are constitutively expressed in secondary lymphoid organs, where they control the placement of lymphocytes and dendritic cells. However, these chemokines are also inducibly expressed in the lung after influenza infection. Here we show that, in the absence of spleen and lymph nodes, the expression of homeostatic chemokin...
متن کاملThe chemokine decoy receptor M3 blocks CC chemokine ligand 2 and CXC chemokine ligand 13 function in vivo.
Chemokines and their receptors play a key role in immune homeostasis regulating leukocyte migration, differentiation, and function. Viruses have acquired and optimized molecules that interact with the chemokine system. These virus-encoded molecules promote cell entry, facilitate dissemination of infected cells, and enable the virus to evade the immune response. One such molecule in the murine g...
