Abstract excerpt
Chemokines are a family of small cytokines, which are signalling proteins secreted by cells. The principal role of chemokines is to serve as chemoattractants to guide the migration of their target cells. Chemokine C-X3-C motif ligand 1 (CX3CL1) is a protein-coding gene of fractalkine, which serves as a ligand for chemokine C-X3-C motif receptor 1 (CX3CR1) and integrins. However, the roles of CX3CL1 in different...
