Chemokines are the largest family of cytokines in human immunophysiology. These proteins
are defined by four invariant cysteines and are categorized based on the sequence around …

Chemokines are critical mediators of cell migration during routine immune surveillance,
inflammation, and development. Chemokines bind to G protein–coupled receptors and …

Chemoattractant cytokines or chemokines constitute a family of structurally related proteins
found in vertebrates, bacteria, or viruses. So far, 48 chemokine genes have been identified …

Chemokines are a family of small chemoattractant cytokines that have an important role in
controlling leukocyte migration. The finding that some chemokines and their receptors are …

Chemokines are small peptides that are potent activators and chemoattractants for leukocyte
subpopulations and some nonhemopoietic cells. Their actions are mediated by a family of 7 …

During the last five years, the development of bioinformatics and EST databases has been
primarily responsible for the identification of many new chemokines and chemokine …

Chemokines are a superfamily of small cytokine-like molecules which have been described
primarily on the basis of their ability to mediate the migration of verious cell types …

The chemokine system coordinates leukocyte migration in immunity and inflammation and is
implicated in the pathogenesis of many human diseases. Although several successful …

In response to infection or injury, the body mounts an inflammatory immune response in
order to neutralize pathogens and promote tissue repair. The key effector cells for these …

Chemokines and their receptors play fundamental roles in many physiological and
pathological processes such as leukocyte trafficking, inflammation, cancer and HIV-1 …
