Chemokine receptor such as CXCR4 and hypoxic condition in the bone marrow play crucial roles in cancer cell trafficking, homing, adhesion, proliferation, survival, and drug resistance.
In this study, we intravenously administered a liganded protein nanocarrier (T22-GFP-H6) targeting CXCR4+ lymphoma cells in mouse models to assess its selectivity as a nanocarrier, by measuring its tissue biodistribution in cancer and normal cells.
T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is one of the most frequent malignancies in children, and the CXCR4 receptor plays an important role in the metastasis of this malignancy.
CXCR4 is involved in various diseases such as inflammation, tumor growth, and cancer metastasis through the interaction with its natural endogenous ligand, chemokine CXCL12.
These studies show that the effects of CXCR4 blockade on immune cell trafficking might serve as a useful adjunct to immune checkpoint inhibitors and other therapies in the treatment of cancer.
In this paper, we reviewed the current understanding of the role of the CXCL12/CXCR4 axis in disease pathology and cancer biology, and discuss its therapeutic implications in cancer and diseases.
The critical roles of CXCL12/CXCR4 axis in the interaction between cancer cells and their microenvironment render it a promising therapeutic target in cancer treatment.
The development and clinical translation of [<sup>68</sup>Ga] Pentixafor has substantially promoted the relevance of non-invasive PET imaging of CXCR4 expression in a broad spectrum of diseases, including cancer and inflammation.
CXCR4 is a prognostic marker in various types of cancer, but the exact mechanisms underlying the regulation of CXCR4 expression by TMP in WERI‑Rb1 cells have yet to be fully elucidated.
The chemokine receptorCXCR4 is an attractive therapeutic target in cancer because it mediates metastasis by inducing cancer cell and macrophage migration.
High expression of chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 12 (CXCL12, also known as stromal cell-derived factor 1 [SDF1]) and its receptor CXC receptor type 4 (CXCR4) are widespread in various malignancy via multiple signal transduction pathways.
The CXCR4-CXCL12 interaction in cancer elicits biological activities that result in tumor progression and has accordingly been the subject of significant investigation for detection and treatment of the disease.
Computational experiments correctly predicted that selected kinase inhibitors used for cancer therapy shifted subsets of cells to states that were more permissive to CXCR4 activation, suggesting that such drugs may inadvertently potentiate pro-metastatic CXCR4 signaling.
The C‑X‑C motif chemokine ligand 12 (CXCL12)/C‑X‑C chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) axis is involved in tumour development and metastatic spread in many types of cancer and previous data have demonstrated a pivotal role of CXCR4 in SS cell migration and invasion.
Our results showed that L1 peptide carrier modified with CXCR4 ligand is a promising tool for targeted siRNA delivery into CXCR4-expressing cancer and endothelial cells.
Among 2027 patients with high-LCR1 then high-LCR2, 167 cancers (113 with cirrhosis, 54 without cirrhosis) were detected, that is 12 patients needed to screen one cancer.
Next-generation sequencing revealed that the CXCR4 expression was significantly higher after the hypoxic condition, which functionally resulted in the EMT and cancer stemness acquisition.
In this article, we describe the biological evaluation of a new CXCR4-targeting and -antagonizing molecule (BAT1) that we designed and show that, when incorporated into a liposomal drug delivery system, it can be used to deliver cancer therapeutics at high levels to chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cells.
The CXCR4/CXCL12 axis plays a crucial role in cancer metastasis, and the blocking of the CXCR4/CXCL12 axis is an effective way of inhibiting cancer metastasis.
<i>Conclusions:</i> [<sup>68</sup>Ga]Ga-BL01 and [<sup>177</sup>Lu]Lu-BL01 are a promising theranostic pair for imaging and endoradiotherapy of CXCR4-expressing malignancies.
Here, we designed the first anti-CXCR4 ADC with favourable therapeutic index, effective in xenografts of haematopoietic cancers resistant to standard of care and anti-CXCR4 antibodies.
The UCA1-miR-204-CXCR4 regulatory network regulated the growth and metastasis of PCa, providing new insight in the management of patients with such malignancy.
C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4) protein level was highly detected in a number of cancer types including pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
