Target intelligence / Profile preview

C-X-C Chemokine Receptor Type 1 (CXCR1)

Target
CXCR1
Molecular classification
G protein-coupled receptor, Receptor
01

Overview

CXCR1 is a G-protein-coupled receptor and a high-affinity receptor for interleukin-8 (IL-8, CXCL8). It is predominantly expressed on neutrophils and plays a critical role in neutrophil chemotaxis, activation, and inflammatory responses. It also contributes to angiogenesis and tumor growth, making it a therapeutic target for various diseases including cancer and inflammatory disorders.

Other names
Interleukin 8 receptor alphaIL8RACD181CD128CKR-1CMKAR1
