Immunogen

synthetic peptide corresponding to the third cytoplasmic loop of human CXC chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4), conjugated to KLH. The immunizing peptide has 100% homology with the rat and mouse gene.

Application

Anti-CXCR4 antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for immunohistochemistry of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections at a working concentration of 9-14 μg/mL. It was used to stain rat bladder sections at a dilution of 1:2000, incubated overnight.

Biochem/physiol Actions

CXCR4 is a cell surface receptor of the chemokine CXCL12 (SDF-1) and is involved in metastasis, hematopoiesis and immune responses. It acts with CD4 to facilitate the entry of HIV into target cells. CXCR4 has important roles in tumor initiation, proliferation, invasion and metastasis of breast cancer cells.

Physical form

Solution in phosphate buffered saline, containing 0.1% sodium azide.

In experimental models of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), irradiation (IR) induces local expression of the chemokine CXCL12/SDF-1, which promotes tumour recurrence. The role of CXCR7, the high-affinity receptor for CXCL12, in the tumour's response to IR has not been addressed. We

Mammary tumours frequently develop in female domestic cats being highly malignant in a large percentage of cases. Chemokines regulate many physiological and pathological processes including organogenesis, chemotaxis of inflammatory cells, as well as tumour progression and metastasization. In particular, the

Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine involved in cystitis and a non-cognate ligand of the chemokine receptor CXCR4 in vitro. We studied whether CXCR4-MIF associations occur in rat bladder and the effect of experimental cystitis. Twenty male

Basal-like breast cancers behave more aggressively despite the presence of a dense lymphoid infiltrate. We hypothesised that immune suppression in this subtype may be due to T regulatory cells (Treg) recruitment driven by hypoxia-induced up-regulation of CXCR4 in Treg. Immunoperoxidase
