Mini-review series: focus on chemokines
Open accessAbstract
Our understanding of the significance and complexity of the chemokine superfamily has increased at an explosive pace over the last decade. Although this pace may be slowing down, many questions remain in this field. The February 2011 Special Feature on Chemokines reviews some of these issues: the CXCR3/CXCL9/CXCL10/CXCL11 axis; the role of chemokines in the thymus; and the function of the atypical chemokine receptors DARC and D6.

In the inflammatory response, chemokines are released by a wide variety of cells involved in both innate and adaptive immunity.
“In the inflammatory response, chemokines are released by a wide variety of cells involved in both innate and adaptive immunity (71).”

Some chemokines promote angiogenesis or guide cells to tissues that provide critical signals for differentiation during development.
“Some chemokines also play a role during development by promoting angiogenesis, or by guiding cells to tissues that provide critical signals for the cell’s differentiation.”

CXCL9 is a strong T cell chemoattractant to the site of inflammation.
“CXCL9, also known as monokine induced by gamma interferon (MIG), is a strong T cell chemoattractant to the site of inflammation (71, 82).”

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.
