GlossaryCXCR4 (CD184)

receptor protein involved in immune cell movement and cancer

CXCR4, also known as C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 or CD184, is a protein found on the surface of certain cells that plays a crucial role in the immune system. It acts as a receptor for a molecule called CXCL12, which helps guide the movement of cells, including immune cells, to sites where they are needed, such as areas of inflammation or injury. This receptor is also involved in the development and progression of various diseases, including cancer and HIV, making it a significant target for medical research and therapeutic interventions.
