Chemokine and Cytokine Networks in Tumor Microenvironment
A large family of tiny chemotactic cytokines direct the migration of immune cells and is known as chemokines. Chemotactic factors help the immune... -
Atypical chemokine receptors in the immune system
Leukocyte migration is a fundamental component of innate and adaptive immune responses as it governs the recruitment and localization of these motile...

Chemokines and Chemokine Receptors in Cancer: An Update
The chemokine family is composed of small chemotactic cytokines and receptors that mediate the infiltration of various immune cells. According to the... -
Cysteine-cysteine Chemokine Receptor Type 5 Plays a Critical Role in Exercise Performance by Regulating Mitochondrial Content in Skeletal Muscle
Cysteine-cysteine chemokine receptor type 5 (CCR5) is thought to play an important role in the trafficking of lymphoid cells but has recently also...
