CXCR7 participates in CXCL12-mediated migration and homing of leukemic and normal hematopoietic cells

Abstract CXCR4 was the first receptor identified for CXCL12, but a second receptor, CXCR7, has also been described and its function in hematopoietic cells remains unknown. By inhibition of CXCR4 and/or CXCR7, we showed that CXCR7 participates in normal CD34+ and U937 cell migration and prevents down...
