## Abstract The chemokine receptor CXCR4 possesses multiple critical functions in normal and pathologic physiology. CXCR4 is a G‐protein‐coupled receptor that transduces signals of its endogenous ligand, the chemokine CXCL12 (stromal cell‐derived factor‐1, SDF‐1). The interaction between CXCL12 and
Chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) is part of the lipopolysaccharide “sensing apparatus”

Background and Objectives: Using the technique of differential hybridization of Atlas TM Human cDNA expression arrays, we previously reported the isolation of a G protein coupled receptor, CXCR-4, which is overexpressed in glioblastoma multiforme tumor tissue (GMTT) compared to normal brain tissue (
## Abstract The design, synthesis, and bioevaluation of fluorescence‐ and biotin‐labeled CXCR4 antagonists are described. The modification of D‐Lys8 at an ε‐amino group in the peptide antagonist Ac‐TZ14011 derived from polyphemusin II had no significant influence on the potent binding of the peptid
## Abstract Binding to a chemokine receptor, either CCR5 or CXCR4, by the gp120 glycoprotein is an essential step in the pathway by which HIV enters host cells. Recently, CCR5 antagonists have been developed that obstruct binding of CCR5 by gp120, thus inhibiting host cell entry. Resistance to such
