Abstract:
The immune system relies on the correct spatial and temporal positioning of cells in order to function; cells need to be able to move throughout the circulatory system to survey for pathogens, to migrate from their resident sites in tissues when they sense infection or injury to alert other cells, or to migrate to the site of damage or infection to help mobilise a response. These functions often involve chemokines, small cytokines that signal through chemokine receptors, which are G-protein coupled receptors expressed on the cell membrane. Different chemokines are regulated differentially and

Abstract:
Les thérapies anti-cancéreuses, notamment l'immunothérapie, ont fait des progrès considérables ces dernières années ; cependant, seul un petit nombre de patients en tire un bénéfice clinique important et durable. Cela s'explique en partie par l'échec des cellules immunitaires cytotoxiques à infiltrer le microenvironnement des tumeurs. L'infiltration immunitaire dépend notamment du réseau de chimiokines, régulé en partie par les ACKRs. Le but de ce projet de thèse était d'étudier les mécanismes impliqués dans la régulation de ACKR2, qui est impliqué dans la régulation du réseau de chimiokines p

Abstract:
The atypical chemokine receptor-2 (ACKR2) is a chemokine decoy receptor that recognises pro-inflammatory CC chemokines. Many studies showed up-regulated inflammation and delayed resolution of inflammatory responses in ACKR2-/- mice. Furthermore, in the absence of ACKR2, lymphatic endothelial cells (LEC) fail to regulate the expression of pro-inflammatory CC chemokines leading to the excessive peri-lymphatic accumulation of leukocytes. As a result, the migration of antigen presenting cells (APC) through lymphatic vessels may be impaired due to lymphatic congestion. In addition, ACKR2 was shown

Abstract:
The ability to clear infections and repair injury is dependent on the coordinated migration of immune cells, or leukocytes. These cells can directly destroy invading pathogens and also produce a variety of bioactive factors that promote pathogen clearance. Interactions between immune cells occur both at the site of inflammation and in specialised lymphoid organs throughout the body. The efficiency and specificity of these interactions relies on the production of a family of molecules called chemotactic cytokines, or chemokines, that drive leukocyte migration. Cells express specific profiles of

Abstract:
Infiltration of inflammatory cells into the tissue during the inflammatory response is beneficial to the host. Chemokines and their receptors are instrumental in this process by influencing the migration and behaviour of leukocytes in the tissue. However, prolonged inflammation is associated with many diseases. In recent years, a family of atypical receptors have emerged which do not seem to signal. One of these receptors, D6, is able to internalise and degrade 12 pro-inflammatory CC chemokines and has a role in the resolution of the inflammatory response. Here, using a murine transgenic appro

Abstract:
D6 is an atypical chemokine receptor related to CCR1-5 that binds to many inflammatory CC chemokines. Experiments using transfected cell lines have shown that upon binding to a chemokine ligand D6 does not trigger cellular signalling pathways, but rather acts to scavenge the bound ligand. It achieves this by constitutively travelling to and from the cell surface via early and recycling endosomes, internalising chemokines bound when it is at the cell surface. Over time, D6 removes a large amount of ligands from the extracellular compartment. In vivo, this scavenging activity is thought to regul

Abstract:
Thymus colonisation and thymocyte positioning are mediated by interactions involving CCR7 and CCR9 and their respective ligands CCL19/CCL21 and CCL25. These chemokines also interact with the atypical receptor CCRL1, which is expressed in the thymus and has recently been reported to play an important role in normal abT-cell development. Our study has mapped CCRL1 expression within the adult and embryonic thymus, and shows that CCRL1 is expressed within the thymic cortex, at the subcapsular zone, and surrounding vessels at the corticomedullary junction. We have used flow cytometry to show CCRL1

Chemokines constitute a family of almost 50 small secreted cytokines, recognized by about 20 different 7TM spanning G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), that activating pertussis toxin sensitive G proteins induce cell migration. These receptor are abundantly expressed by leukocytes and, controlling cell migration, they dictate leukocyte positioning during homeostatic patrolling within peripheral tissues, their maintenance in bone marrow during maturation and in addition mediate their recruitment to inflamed tissues.

Psoriasis is a common, debilitating systemic inflammatory disorder that is characterised by sharply demarcated, thick, erythematous scaly skin plaques. Such plaques commonly appear on skin that is subjected to repeated tensile trauma, such as elbows, knees and flexures. The mechanism by which these inflammatory lesions are spatially restricted is not known and yet knowledge of this could be of critical importance for our understanding of this disease. Chemokines are the principal regulators of leukocyte migration and play a critical role in the initiation and maintenance of inflammation. The a

Abstract:
The chemokine receptor CXCR3 and its agonists CXCL9/Mig, CXCL10/IP-10 and CXCL11/I-TAC are involved in a variety of inflammatory disorders including multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis and sarcoidosis. CXCL11 has also been reported to bind to an additional receptor, namely CXCR7, which also interacts with CXCL12. Two alternatively spliced variants of the human CXCR3 receptor have been described, namely CXCR3-B and CXCR3-alt. The human CXCR3-B has been found to bind CXCL9, CXCL10, CXCL11 as well as an additional agonist CXCL4/PF4. In contrast, CXCR3-alt only binds CXCL11. This w

Abstract:
Chemokines promote leukocyte migration through the activation of dedicated G-protein coupled receptors. Beyond conventional chemokine receptors, which directly induce cell migration through heterotrimeric Gαi-mediated signalling events, a set of atypical chemokine receptors (ACKRs) have been described. ACKRs do not activate Gαi-mediated signalling activity, but they are mainly involved in shaping the chemokine gradient. The best characterized member of this family is ACKR2.

Chemokines and chemokine receptors are key mediators of inflammation and important regulators of leukocyte migration in homeostatic conditions as well as during infection and cancer. The atypical receptor ACKR2 is a scavenger receptor for many inflammatory CC chemokines, it is expressed either by non-hematopoietic cells or by hematopoietic cells, and it has been shown to prevent the development of exacerbated inflammatory reactions.

Abstract:
The CXC chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) and the atypical chemokine receptor 3 (ACKR3) are seven transmembrane receptors that are involved in numerous pathologies, including several types of cancers. Both receptors bind the same chemokine, CXCL12, leading to significantly different outcomes. While CXCR4 activation generally leads to canonical GPCR signaling, involving Gi proteins and β‐arrestins, ACKR3, which is predominantly found in intracellular vesicles, has been shown to signal via β‐arrestin‐dependent signaling pathways.

The significance of chemokine receptors CCR7, CCR9 and their ligands CCL19, CCL21, and CCL25 in various types of cancer including mammary carcinoma and melanoma has been highlighted over the last decade. The atypical chemokine receptor CCK-CKR is a high affinity receptor for these chemokine ligands but rather than inducing classical downstream signalling events promoting migration, it instead sequesters and targets its ligands for degradation. Therefore, CCX-CKR has been proposed to regulate chemokine bioavailability in vivo. This putative function of CCX-CKR to regulate the levels of pro-tumo

The significance of chemokines in directing cell migration both during homeostasis and immune responses has been appreciated for some time. However, the mechanisms in place to post-translationally regulate cell migration through chemokine modulation are only recently becoming clear.
