Abstract excerpt
The CXC chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) and its ligand stromal derived factor 1 (SDF-1) regulate egress and homing of hematopoietic stem cells. Activation of sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptors (S1P(1-5)) modulates chemokine-induced migration of lymphocytes and hematopoietic stem cells. To analyze the influence of S1P(1) on SDF-1-dependent chemotaxis and trafficking, we overexpressed S1P(1) in CD34+ mobilized...
