Background CXCR3-associated chemokines CXCL9–CXCL11 promote histologic
progression in chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, as indicated by elevated …

CCR5 cell-surface expression was studied in relation to CCR5 genotype and clinical course
of HIV-1 infection. HIV-1 infected CCR5+/+ individuals had higher percentages of CCR5 …

Previous studies have highlighted the role of pre-infection systemic inflammation on HIV
acquisition risk, but the extent to which it predicts disease progression outcomes is less …

Background: CXCR3A-associated chemokines (CXCL9-11) are implicated in the
pathogenesis of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. We analyzed the association between …

Chemokine CXCL8 is a low molecular weight neutrophil chemoattractant implicated in
various neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer's disease and stroke. Increased …

Background and purpose Elevation of the chemokine CXCL13 in CSF frequently occurs
during active and acute CNS inflammatory processes and presumably is associated with B …

Objective: To investigate the molecular phenotype of the AIDS-onset delaying polymorphism
in CXCL12β 3'UTR (rs1801157). Methods: The 3'UTRs of the CXCL12β isoform containing …

Introduction Understanding the genital mucosal immunity and the factors involved in linking
innate to adaptive immunity is crucial for the design of efficient preventive strategies against …

The importance of chemokine expression on HIV infection has been emphasized by the
discovery that infection of CD4+ T cells by M-tropic strains of HIV-1 is antagonized by the …

Persistent infection of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) takes place in the secondary
lymphoid tissues even during clinically latent stages. The CC chemokines secondary …
