The HMGB1-CXCL12 heterocomplex and its interaction with CXCR4 as a target for tissue repair

Abstract:

Reduced High Mobility Group Box 1 (HMGB1) protein binds to CXC Ligand 12 (CXCL12), signals through CXC Receptor 4 (CXCR4) to promote tissue regeneration and accelerates repair by transitioning stem and progenitor cells to GAlert. Therefore, administration of fully reduced HMGB1 (FR-HMGB1) could prove beneficial in clinical practice. However, local conversion of FR-HMGB1 to the disulfide form (DS-HMGB1) may result in deleterious inflammation through signalling via Toll-Like Receptors 2 and ...
