CCR8 is one of the chemokine receptors that are required as coreceptors for HIV infection.
The genes encoding human and murine CCR8 were cloned and designated TER1, CKR-L1, and ChemR1.
The encoded seven transmembrane protein was identified as the receptor for human CC chemokine I-309 and renamed CCR8.
Recently, CCR8 was found to serve as a coreceptor for diverse T-cell tropic, dual-tropic and macrophage-tropic HIV-1 strains.
CCR8 mediates CC chemokine I-309 induced monocyte chemoattraction and HIV-1 envelope fusion and virus infection, which can be prevented by the CCR8 ligand I-309.
CCR8 is expressed in spleen, thymus and T lymphoblastic cell lines.
