CXCL17 is an allosteric inhibitor of CXCR4 through a mechanism of action involving glycosaminoglycans (2024)
Journal Article
White, C. W., Platt, S., Kilpatrick, L. E., Dale, N., Abhayawardana, R. S., Dekkers, S., …Hill, S. J. (2024). CXCL17 is an allosteric inhibitor of CXCR4 through a mechanism of action involving glycosaminoglycans. Science Signaling, 17(828), Article abl3758. https://doi.org/10.1126/scisignal.abl3758

CXCL17 is a chemokine principally expressed by mucosal tissues, where it facilitates chemotaxis of monocytes, dendritic cells, and macrophages and has antimicrobial properties. CXCL17 is also implicated in the pathology of inflammatory disorders and... Read More about CXCL17 is an allosteric inhibitor of CXCR4 through a mechanism of action involving glycosaminoglycans.

A time-resolved Förster resonance energy transfer assay to investigate drug and inhibitor binding to ABCG2. Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 753, Article 109915. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.abb.2024.109915

The human ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter, ABCG2, is responsible for multidrug resistance in some tumours. Detailed knowledge of its activity is crucial for understanding drug transport and resistance in cancer, and has implications for wider...
