Interleukin-8 and the chemokine family

Baggiolini, Marco, Loetscher, Pius, Moser, Bernhard·1995·International Journal of Immunopharmacology

Abstract

Two subfamilies of chemokines are distinguished depending on the arrangement of the first two of four conserved cysteines, which are either separated by one amino acid (CXC chemokines) or adjacent (CC chemokines). IL-8 and the other CXC chemokines act preferentially on neutrophils, while the CC chemokines (MCP-1, MCP-2, MCP-3, RANTES, MIP-1 alpha and MIP-1 beta) act on monocytes, but not neutrophils, and have additional activities toward basophil and eosinophil granulocytes, and T-lymphocytes. Several chemokine receptors have been identified, all of which belong to the seven-transmembrane-domain type and are coupled to G-proteins. The discovery of chemokines has provided the basis for the understanding of leukocyte recruitment and activation in inflammation and other disturbances of tissue homeostasis.

  • Neutrophils are the first cells to migrate to the wound bed, brought in by pro-inflammatory signals including IL-8.

    “Concurrent with the achievement of hemostasis, neutrophils are the first cells to migrate to the wound bed, brought in by pro-inflammatory signals including IL-8.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
