  • Title: A chemokine, SDF-1/PBSF, and its receptor, CXC chemokine receptor 4, as mediators of hematopoiesis.
    Author: Nagasawa T.
    Journal: Int J Hematol; 2000 Dec; 72(4):408-11. PubMed ID: 11197205.
    Abstract:
    A chemokine, stromal cell-derived factor/pre-B-cell growth-stimulating factor (SDF-1/PBSF), and its primary physiologic receptor, CXC chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4), are essential for B-lymphocyte production and colonization of bone marrow by myeloid lineage progenitors during embryogenesis. Moreover, CXCR4 is an autonomous cell essential for long-term lymphoid and myeloid reconstitution in adult bone marrow. Upregulation of CXCR4 expression may be useful for improving engraftment of repopulating stem cells in clinical transplantation.
