Anti-CXCR6 (BONZO, CD186, STRL33, CDw186, TYMSTR, G-Protein-coupled Receptor STRL33, C-X-C chemokine

CXCR6 (Chemokine,CXC Motif, Receptor 6), also known as STRL33, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CXCR6 gene. By Southern blot analysis of genomic DNA and somatic cell hybrid analysis, Liao et al. (1997) mapped the single-copy STRL33 gene to chromosome 3. Matloubian et al. (2000) found that human and mouse cells expressing CXCR6 showed a strong chemotactic response to CXCL16 but not to other chemokines. The authors concluded that CXCL16 and CXCR6 probably function in interactions between dendritic cells and T cells and in regulating T-cell migration in the splenic red pulp. Kim et al. (2001) concluded that CXCR6 may be important in the trafficking of effector T cells mediating type-1 inflammation.
