Abstract excerpt
The chemokine interleukin 8/CXCL8 induces the phosphorylation of the GluR1 subunit of the AMPA-type glutamate receptor in neurons and transfected HEK cells, on both serine 845 (S845) and 831 (S831) residues. We previously described that CXCL8 receptor CXCR2 and GluR1 co-precipitate and that GluR1/CXCR2 co-expression both in HEK cells and neurons impairs CXCL8-induced cell migration. Here we show that replacement...
