Intracellular trafficking and endocytosis of CXCR4 in fetal mesenchymal stem/stromal cells
16 May 2014
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Fetal mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSC) represent a developmentally-advantageous cell type with translational potential.To enhance adult MSC migration, studies have focussed on the role of the chemokine receptor CXCR4 and its ligand SDF-1 (CXCL12), but more recent work implicates an intricate system of CXCR4 receptor dimerization, intracellular localization, multiple ligands, splice variants and...
