Background Circulating levels of chemerin are significantly higher in hypertensive patients
and positively correlate with blood pressure. Chemerin activates chemokine‐like receptor 1 …

Chemerin acts as a chemotactic factor for leukocyte populations expressing the G protein‐
coupled receptor CMKLR 1 (ChemR23). It is also an adipocytokine involved in obesity and …

Chemerin acting via its distinct G protein-coupled receptor CMKLR1 (ChemR23), is a novel
adipokine, circulating levels of which are raised in inflammatory states. Chemerin shows …

Chemerin is an adipokine associated with increased blood pressure, and may link obesity
with hypertension. We tested the hypothesis that chemerin-induced contraction of the …

Objective—Obesity and hypertension are comorbid in epidemic proportion, yet their
biological connection is largely a mystery. The peptide chemerin is a candidate for …

Chemerin, a chemoattractant protein and adipokine, has been identified as the endogenous
ligand for a G protein–coupled receptor encoded by the gene CMKLR1 (also known as …

Chemerin and its receptor, chemokine-like receptor 1 (CmklR1), are associated with
chemotaxis, inflammation, and endothelial function, especially in metabolic syndrome …

Blood chemerin concentration shows positive correlation not only with body mass index and
serum triglyceride level but also with systolic blood pressure. While it seems likely that …

Background Depending on their anatomical location, different fat depots have a different
capacity to produce bioactive peptides, called adipokines. Adipokines produced by …

Chemerin is an adipocytokine having cardiovascular effects. Chemokine-like receptor 1
(CMKLR1) and chemokine (CC motif) receptor-like 2 (CCRL2) are chemerin receptors …
