SDF-1 was originally described as a pre-B cell stimulatory factor, but has now been shown to function as a potent chemoattractant for T cells and monocytes, but not neutrophils.
Receptors for the C-X-C family are G protein-coupled, seven-pass, transmembrane domain proteins which include IL-8RA, IL-8RB and fusin (also designated LESTR or CXCR-4).
Fusin is highly homologous to the IL-8 receptors, sharing 37% sequence identity at the amino acid level.
The IL-8 receptors bind to IL-8, NAP-2 and MSGA, while fusin binds to its cognate ligand, SDF-1.
Fusin has been identified as the major co-receptor for T-tropic HIV-1, and SDF-1 has been shown to inhibit HIV-1 infection.
Six human SDF-1 isoforms exist due to alternative splicing of CXCL12, the gene encoding SDF-1.
