1 12383202 The chemokine stromal-cell derived factor-1 (SDF-1) controls maturation, trafficking, and homing of certain subsets, lymphoid cells including immunogenic B and T cells, as a ligand of the CXCR4 chemokine receptor.
2 15784733 A minority of BM-MSCs (2% to 25%) expressed a restricted set of chemokine receptors (CXC receptor 4 [CXCR4], CX3C receptor 1 [CX3CR1], CXCR6, CC chemokine receptor 1 [CCR1], CCR7) and, accordingly, showed appreciable chemotactic migration in response to the chemokines CXC ligand 12 (CXCL12), CX3CL1, CXCL16, CC chemokine ligand 3 (CCL3), and CCL19.
3 19142013 These effects were mediated by increased expression of the chemokine receptor CXCR4 and were dependent on nitric oxide synthase activity.
4 19476565 Recent observation suggested that the CXCR4, a G-protein-coupled receptor with a unique ligand, CXCL12, might be involved in the pathogenesis for type 1 diabetes.
5 20586815 Exposure of primary VSMCs to high glucose (25 mM) led to the up-regulated expression of SDF-1? and CXCR4, activated PI-3K/Akt signalling, and consequently promoted the proliferation and chemotaxis of VSMCs.
6 21567300 Here we propose that beta cell injury induces SDF-1 production, and the SDF-1/chemokine (C-X-C motif) receptor 4 (CXCR4) interaction auto-activates Sdf1 expression, resulting in the autocrine production of SDF-1 by beta cells and the paracrine activation of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) production by alpha cells.
7 17878289 In MIN6 beta-cells, a CXCR4 antagonist (AMD3100) induces apoptosis, increases reactive oxygen species, decreases expression levels of the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2, and reduces phosphorylation of the proapoptotic protein Bad.
