Biochem/physiol Actions

C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR-4) is a protein encoded by the CXCR4 gene in humans. It is expressed in various cell types and the mechanisms involved in the regulation of its expression are still unknown. CXCR4 is a cofactor for fusion and entry of T cell-tropic strains of HIV-1. It is a chemokine receptor that is overexpressed in certain cancer types and involved in migration toward distant organs. CXCR4 is associated with various functions such as embryo organogenesis, immunological functions and T lymphocyte trafficking. High CXCR4 expression can be helpful in predicting clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). It plays a vital role in modulating cell trafficking in hematopoietic stem cells and clonal B cells. CXCR4 plays an important role in biological processes, as well as in tumorigenesis and the progression of cancer, especially breast cancer. It is an efficient prognostic factor for breast cancer.
