Chemokines are present in all vertebrates as well as some viruses and bacteria. Some of the functions of chemokines include: Acting as chemoattractants to help immune cells migrate to the site of ...

23 ELR+ CXC chemokines are encoded in a multigene array on chromosome 4. A key function of ELR+ CXC chemokines is to attract neutrophils to sites of inflammation and induce granule exocytosis and ...

Analysis of an immunological synapse now demonstrates an additional function for chemokines as costimulatory molecules. Understanding of immunological synapses may be increased by comparison with ...

NULISA employs a sequential immunocomplex capture and release technique to improve the sensitivity of traditional proximity ligation assays by over a thousand-fold to attomolar levels, enabling ...

LIH researchers reveal the secret of how immune cells find their way, opening new perspectives for targeted therapies, such as for cancer ...

Baseline levels of the 3 chemokines were found to be significantly higher in the participants who had incident CHD compared with the participants who did not (P = .001 for IP-10 and P ...

Urinary chemokines CXCL9 and CXCL10 appear to be good noninvasive biomarkers of kidney transplant rejection that can identify patients who warrant biopsy. Quantifying the inflammatory chemokines ...
