General description

CXCR3, a chemokine receptor, is highly similar to the interleukin 8B receptor and has been shown to mediate recruitment of T cells to sites of inflammation and retention of T-cells in the inflamed CNS. CXCR3 has been suggested to be the principal inflammatory chemokine receptor involved in intrathecal accumulation of T-cells in multiple sclerosis and diabetes. It is expressed on malignant B cells in chronic lymphoproliferative disorders (Jones et al., 2000). An alternatively spliced isoform, CXCR3B, has recently been identified (Lasagni et al., 2003). CXCR3 expression has been documented in the brain, lymphoid and other peripheral tissues, and in diseases including atherosclerosis, Alzheimer′s, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, lymphomas, asthma, neoplasms, leukemia, and inflammatory conditions of various organs.
