Target intelligence / Profile preview

Chemokine receptor CCR7 (CCR7)

Target
CCR7
Molecular classification
G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), Receptor
01

Overview

Chemokine receptor CCR7 is a G protein-coupled receptor that plays a central role in the immune system by guiding the migration of immune cells, particularly dendritic cells and lymphocytes, to secondary lymphoid organs. It is implicated in tumor metastasis and chronic inflammatory diseases, making it a promising therapeutic target.

Other names
C-C chemokine receptor type 7CD197
