Cutting Edge: Chemoattractant Receptor-Homologous Molecule Expressed on TH2 Cells Plays a Restricting Role on IL-5 Production and Eosinophil Recruitment
1 Aug 2005
Abstract excerpt
PGs play key regulatory roles in inflammation and immunity. PGD2, released from mast cells and Th2 cells during allergic responses, has recently been shown to target a novel receptor, chemoattractant receptor-homologous molecule expressed TH2 cells (CRTH2), in addition to the classic PGD (DP) receptor. CRTH2 is expressed on Th2 cells and eosinophils and mediates chemotaxis of these cells to PGD2. Thus, CRTH2 is...
