Important roles of chemokines and their to specific organs. We have recently demonstrated that receptors have been demonstrated in inflammation, CXCR3 plays a critical role in metastasis of mouse infection, tissue injury, allergy and cardiovascular melanoma cells to lymph nodes. Here, we show that some diseases as well as in malignant tumors. Chemokine human colon cancer cell lines express CXCR3 constitu- receptor CXCR3 is essential for the physiologic and tively. We constructed cells that expressed CXCR3 cDNA pathologic recruitment of plasmacytoid dendritic cell (‘DLD-1-CXCR3’), and compared with nonexpressing precursors, monocytes and natural killer cells to controls by rectal transplantation in nude mice. Although inflamed lymph nodes (LNs) (Cella et al., 1999; both cell lines disseminated to lymph nodes at similar Janatpour et al., 2001; Martin-Fontecha et al., 2004), frequencies at 2 weeks, DLD-1-CXCR3 expanded more and for retention of Th1 lymphocytes within LNs rapidly than the control in 4 weeks. In 6 weeks, 59% of (Yoneyama et al., 2002). On the other hand, chemokine mice inoculated with DLD1-CXCR3 showed macroscopic receptor CCR7 plays a central role in the recruitment of metastasis in para-aortic lymph nodes, whereas only 14% naı¨ ve T cells, some memory T cells, and mature of those with the control (Po0.05). In contrast, dendritic cells to LNs (Cyster, 1999; von Andrian and metastasis to the liver or lung was rare, and unaffected Mempel, 2003). In contrast, the roles of chemokines in by CXCR3 expression. In clinical colon cancer samples, malignant tumors appear complex. Whereas many we found expression of CXCR3 in 34% cases, most of chemokines show antitumor activities by stimulating which had lymph node metastasis. Importantly, patients immune cells or by inhibiting tumor neovascularization with CXCR3-positive cancer showed significantly poorer (angiogenesis), other chemokines may promote tumor prognosis than those without CXCR3, or those expressing growth and metastasis by directly stimulating growth, and CXCR4 or CCR7. These results indicate that activation enhancing cell motility and/or angiogenesis (Balkwill, of CXCR3 with its ligands stimulates colon cancer 2004). Regarding the direct role of chemokines in LN metastasis preferentially to the draining lymph nodes with metastasis, recent reports suggest a critical role for poorer prognosis. chemokine receptors CXCR3 and CCR7 in metastasis Oncogene (2007) 26, 4679–4688; doi:10.1038/sj.onc.1210267; of melanoma and breast cancer (Mu¨ ller et al., 2001; published online 5 February 2007 Robledo et al., 2001; Kawada et al., 2004).

Donnelly, Airway Disease, National Heart and Lung Institute, Dovehouse Street, London, SW3 6LY, UK. E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients exhibit chronic inflammation, both in the lung parenchyma and the airways, which is characterised by an increased infiltration of macrophages and T-lymphocytes, particularly CD8+ cells. Both cell types can express chemokine (C-X-C motif) receptor (CXCR)3 and C-C chemokine receptor 5 and the relevant chemokines for these receptors are elevated in COPD. The aim of this study was to compare chemotactic responses of lymphocytes and monocytes of nonsmokers, smokers and COPD patients towards CXCR3 ligands and chemokine (C-C motif) ligand (CCL)5. Migration of peripheral blood mononuclear cells, monocytes and lymphocytes from nonsmokers, smokers and COPD patients toward CXCR3 chemokines and CCL5 was analysed using chemotaxis assays. There was increased migration of peripheral blood mononuclear cells from COPD patients towards all chemokines studied when compared with nonsmokers and smokers. Both lymphocytes and monocytes contributed to this enhanced response, which was not explained by increased receptor expression.

  • Cytokines (CCL25)
    Mouse Recombinant TECK Cytokines (CCL25) Thymus-expressed chemokine Catalog # 78180 5 μg 78180.1 25 μg Product Description Thymus-expressed chemokine (TECK), or CCL25, is a member of the CC family of chemokines that regulates the movement of lymphocytes in the thymus and in the small intestine. TECK induces chemoattraction by binding the chemokine receptor CCR9, which is expressed on immature pre-T cells and thymocytes (Youn et al.; Uehara et al.). In the thymus, TECK is produced by stromal cells, whereas in the small intestine TECK is primarily produced by epithelial cells (Vicari et al.; Bowman et al.; Kunkel et al.). CCR9 is a G protein-coupled receptor and is expressed on most thymocytes, but not on natural killer cells, monocytes, eosinophils, basophils, and neutrophils (Wu et al). In Jurkat cells, binding of TECK to CCL9 has been shown to increase levels of intracellular calcium (Cheng-Rong et al). TECK/CCR9 signaling has also been linked to many cancers, as these molecules have been shown to mediate anti-apoptotic processes by activating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, weakening the effect of cytotoxic T cells by regulating STAT signaling. Additionally, TECK induces metastasis by increasing the expression of MMP2 and MMP9 (Tu et al.).

  • CXCR6 Within T-Helper (Th) and T-Cytotoxic
    European Journal of Endocrinology (2005) 152 635–643 ISSN 0804-4643 EXPERIMENTAL STUDY CXCR6 within T-helper (Th) and T-cytotoxic (Tc) type 1 lymphocytes in Graves’ disease (GD) G Aust, M Kamprad1, P Lamesch2 and E Schmu¨cking Institute of Anatomy, 1Department of Clinical Immunology and Transfusion Medicine and 2Department of Surgery, University of Leipzig, Phillipp-Rosenthal-Str. 55, Leipzig, 04103, Germany (Correspondence should be addressed to G Aust; Email: [email protected]) Abstract Objective: In Graves’ disease (GD), stimulating anti-TSH receptor antibodies are responsible for hyperthyroidism. T-helper 2 (Th2) cells were expected to be involved in the underlying immune mech- anism, although this is still controversial. The aim of this study was to examine the expression of CXCR6, a chemokine receptor that marks functionally specialized T-cells within the Th1 and T-cyto- toxic 1 (Tc1) cell pool, to gain new insights into the running immune processes. Methods: CXCR6 expression was examined on peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs) and thyroid- derived lymphocytes (TLs) of GD patients in flow cytometry. CXCR6 cDNA was quantified in thyroid tissues affected by GD (n ¼ 16), Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT; n ¼ 2) and thyroid autonomy (TA; n ¼ 11) using real-time reverse transcriptase PCR. Results: The percentages of peripheral CXCR6þ PBLs did not differ between GD and normal subjects. CXCR6 was expressed by small subsets of circulating T-cells and natural killer (NK) cells. CXCR6þ cells were enriched in thyroid-derived T-cells compared with peripheral CD4þ and CD8þ T-cells in GD. The increase was evident within the Th1 (CD4þ interferon-gþ (IFN-gþ)) and Tc1 (CD8þIFN- gþ) subpopulation and CD8þ granzyme Aþ T-cells (cytotoxic effector type).

Some studies have suggested that blocking the interaction between the chemokine CXCL10 and its receptor CXCR3 on activated CTL potently inhibits their recruitment and prevents beta cell death. Since recent studies on human pancreata from T1D patients have indicated that both ligand and receptor are abundantly present, we reevaluated whether their interaction constitutes a pivotal node within the chemokine network associated with T1D. Our present data in a viral mouse model challenge the notion that specific blockade of the CXCL10/CXCR3 chemokine axis halts T1D onset and progression.

  • Association of CXCR4 Expression with Metastasis and Survival Among Patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
    The Korean Journal of Pathology 2008; 42: 358-64 Association of CXCR4 Expression with Metastasis and Survival among Patients with Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Joon Seon Song∙Jin Kyung Jung Background : Expression of CXCR4 chemokine receptor, initially described to be involved Jong Chul Park∙Dong Kwan Kim1 in the homing of lymphocytes in inflammatory tissue, on breast cancer cell lines is associated Se Jin Jang with the development of lung metastases. In the present study, we evaluated CXCR4 expres- sion in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods : Tissue microarray blocks Departments of Pathology and 1Thoracic were constructed from 408 formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded NSCLC samples and analyzed and Cardiovascular Surgery, University via immunohistochemical staining. Results : We observed CXCR4 expression in 214 (66.3%) of Ulsan College of Medicine, Asan of the 323 tumors with cytoplasmic or nuclear staining patterns. These tumors were then divid- Medical Center, Seoul, Korea ed into 109 negative, 166 weak-positive and 48 strong-positive expression groups. Strong expression of CXCR4 correlated with NSCLC recurrence (p=0.047) and distant metastasis Received : August 21, 2008 (p=0.035). However, lymph node metastasis (p=0.683) and locoregional recurrence (p=0.856) Accepted : October 22, 2008 were not associated with CXCR4 expression. Interestingly, the median overall survival times Corresponding Author relative to CXCR4 expression were 71 months in the CXCR4-negative group, 43 months in Se Jin Jang, M.D. the weakly positive CXCR4 group and 23 months in the strongly positive CXCR4 group.
