Chemokine Receptor 7 (CCR7) Gene Expression Is Regulated by NF-κB and Activator Protein 1 (AP1) in Metastatic Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Head and Neck (SCCHN)
12 Dec 2011
Abstract excerpt
The chemokine receptor CCR7 is a seven-transmembrane domain G-protein-coupled receptor that facilitates leukocyte migration to regional lymph nodes. Aberrant CCR7 expression in a number of human malignancies has been linked to pro-survival, -invasive, and -metastatic pathways. We demonstrate here that up-regulation of CCR7 in squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) patient tumors correlates with...
