ELR+ CXC chemokines, by direct interaction with their cell surface receptors CXC chemokine receptor 1 (CXCR1) and CXC chemokine receptor 2 (CXCR2), are believed to be crucially involved in the direct migration and activation of leukocytes. ELR+ CXC chemokines are supposed to play a key role in several inflammatory diseases and this makes ELR+ CXC chemokines and their receptors attractive therapeutic targets. The first aim of this review is to discuss the potential pathological role of ELR+ CXC chemokines in different pathologies, including ulcerative colitis (UC), ischaemia/reperfusion injury (RI), bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) and tumor progression. Moreover, the most recently described inhibitors of ELR+ CXC chemokines and their therapeutic indications will be reviewed. Finally, the mode of action and the potential therapeutical use of reparixin, a new potent and selective inhibitor of CXCR1/2 activity, and its chemical derivatives are also discussed.
ELR+ CXC趋化因子通过与细胞表面受体CXC趋化因子受体1(CXCR1)和CXC趋化因子受体2(CXCR2)直接相互作用,被认为在白细胞的直接迁移和激活中起关键作用。ELR+ CXC趋化因子被认为在几种炎症性疾病中起关键作用,这使得ELR+ CXC趋化因子及其受体成为有吸引力的治疗靶点。本综述的首要目的是讨论ELR+ CXC趋化因子在不同病理状况下的潜在病理作用,包括溃疡性结肠炎(UC)、缺血/再灌注损伤(RI)、闭塞性细支气管炎综合征(BOS)和肿瘤进展。此外,还将综述最近描述的ELR+ CXC趋化因子抑制剂及其治疗适应症。最后,还讨论了一种新型强效且选择性的CXCR1/2活性抑制剂瑞帕霉素及其化学衍生物的作用模式和潜在治疗用途。
