Literature on CXCR1
CXCR1 [ENSP00000295683]
High affinity interleukin-8 receptor A; Receptor to interleukin-8, which is a powerful neutrophils chemotactic factor. Binding of IL-8 to the receptor causes activation of neutrophils. This response is mediated via a G-protein that activate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. This receptor binds to IL-8 with a high affinity and to MGSA (GRO) with a low affinity; C-X-C motif chemokine receptors
Synonyms: CXCR1, CXCR1p, hCXCR1, P25024, CMKAR1 ...
