CXCR4 or CD184 protein is a receptor for the chemokine CXCL12 (SDF-1) and plays a significant role in oncology due to its involvement in tumor growth, metastasis, and the tumor microenvironment. CXCR4 and its ligand CXCL12 are crucial for the metastatic spread of cancer cells to organs where CXCL12 is expressed, such as the bone marrow, liver, and lungs. The CXCR4-CXCL12 axis helps tumor cells find niches that support their survival and growth.\u003cbr\u003e\nOur internal data indicates that rat is not recommended for IHC.\u003cbr\u003e\nAbcam recommended secondaries - Goat Anti-Rabbit HRP (\u003cbr\u003e\nab205718\u003cbr\u003e\n) and Goat Anti-Rabbit Alexa Fluor® 488 (\u003cbr\u003e\nab150077\u003cbr\u003e\n).

It has a molecular weight of approximately 41 kDa. CXCR4 is ubiquitously expressed across various tissues including immune cells like T and B lymphocytes as well as in bone marrow brain and heart. It binds specifically with the ligand CXCL12 also known as stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF-1) facilitating responses such as cell migration and proliferation.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nCXCR4 plays an important role in the immune system hematopoiesis and angiogenesis. It does not function alone and is often part of a larger protein complex where it recruits and activates other G proteins. The receptor mediates chemotactic responses directing cells to sites of inflammation or injury. Its interaction with CXCL12 is critical for maintaining immune surveillance aiding in the movement and positioning of immune cells.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nCXCR4 integrates into significant cellular signaling pathways such as the PI3K\/AKT pathway and the MAPK pathway. It collaborates closely with signaling proteins like AKT1 and MAPK1 impacting cell survival and growth. These pathways are essential for various cellular functions including cell cycle progression and apoptosis regulation. The cross-talk between CXCR4 and these pathways underlines its influence on cell fate decisions.\u003cbr\u003e\nCXCR4 is implicated in cancer metastasis and HIV entry into cells. Overexpression of CXCR4 is observed in several cancers contributing to tumor growth and metastasis. The interaction between CXCR4 and CXCL12 facilitates the infiltration and spread of cancer cells. Additionally in HIV CXCR4 serves as a coreceptor along with CD4 allowing the virus to enter and infect host cells. Both cancer and HIV illustrate CXCR4's central role in disease progression and pathogenesis.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46844052111529,"sku":"ab124824","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab124824","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
