Target intelligence / Profile preview

CXC chemokine receptor type 1 (CXCR1)

Target
CXCR1
Molecular classification
G-protein-coupled receptor
01

Overview

CXCR1 is a G-protein-coupled receptor that binds to the chemokine IL8/CXCL8 with high affinity, primarily expressed on neutrophils. It mediates neutrophil chemotaxis and activation, playing a critical role in inflammation and host defense. Aberrant CXCR1 expression is associated with cancer progression, making it a potential therapeutic target.
