趨化素(Chemokine)是一群可被誘導,可被分泌而且結構類似的小分子(8-14kd)。趨化素可分為CXC、CC、CX3C及C四亞群;若以功能來分類,趨化素可分為恆定性趨化素(Homeostasis chemokines)及發炎性趨化素(Inflammatory chemokines)。趨化素受器(Chemokine receptor)是屬於G-蛋白偶合受器(G-protein coupled receptor; GPCR),主要表現在白血球,趨化素及其受器的主要功能是將白血球吸引到感染或受傷的組織,使白血球能發揮抵抗病原菌的能力並且啟動免疫及發炎反應。本室主要探討趨化素及其受器的生理功能:(1)研究CCR6的生化及生理功能;(2)利用動物模式來探討趨化素及其受器在感染及發炎疾病所扮演的角色。
