Gene: CXCR4
Official Full Name: C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 4provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a CXC chemokine receptor specific for stromal cell-derived factor-1. The protein has 7 transmembrane regions and is located on the cell surface. It acts with the CD4 protein to support HIV entry into cells and is also highly expressed in breast cancer cells. Mutations in this gene have been associated with WHIM (warts, hypogammaglobulinemia, infections, and myelokathexis) syndrome. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

CXCR4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically modified cell lines designed to lack the expression of the CXCR4 receptor, a critical player in various physiological and pathological processes, including hematopoiesis, immune response, and cancer metastasis. Through the application of CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing technology, these cell lines provide a robust platform for studying the effects of CXCR4 signaling pathways and their implications in numerous biological contexts.
The primary mechanism by which CXCR4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines operate involves the disruption of the CXCR4 gene, leading to the absence of its protein product on the cell surface. This knockout allows researchers to investigate the role of CXCR4 in cellular behaviors such as migration, proliferation, and survival in both health and disease. The absence of this receptor can elucidate its contributions to cancer progression and metastasis, particularly in hematopoietic malignancies and solid tumors, thereby providing insights into potential therapeutic interventions.
The scientific significance of these cell lines lies in their wide-ranging applications in research and clinical contexts. They are invaluable tools for drug discovery, functional studies, and the development of targeted therapies, especially in oncology and immunology. By characterizing the downstream effects of impaired CXCR4 signaling, researchers can better understand the molecular underpinnings of disease states and refine their approaches toward innovative treatments.
Compared to alternative models, such as pharmacological inhibitors or less specific genetic knockdown approaches, CXCR4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer a more precise and reproducible means of investigating the receptor's role. The specificity of the knockout enables clearer interpretations of experimental results, ultimately enhancing the reliability of research findings.
In this age of advanced biomedical research, the importance of accurate models cannot be overstated. Utilizing CXCR4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines allows researchers and clinicians to push the boundaries of knowledge while developing novel therapies that specifically target cancer and other diseases linked to CXCR4 signaling.
