Overview of Gene Research
Ccr9, short for C-C chemokine receptor 9, is a G protein-coupled receptor. It is expressed on several immune cells like dendritic cells, CD4+ T cells, and B cells, and its main function is to drive immune cell migration towards gradients of its cognate ligand CCL25 [3]. CCL25 is mostly produced by gut and thymic epithelial cells, and Ccr9 is thus implicated in gut-and thymus-related immune regulation [3]. Ccr9 is involved in various biological processes, such as inflammation and immune response, and is associated with diseases including cancer, inflammatory bowel disease, and cardiovascular disease [1,2,5].
Early research using Ccr9-deficient mouse models confirmed its physiological functions in inflammatory responses [2]. In adriamycin-induced cardiomyopathy, Ccr9 overexpression in mouse models aggravated cardiac dysfunction, while Ccr9 knockdown reversed the harmful effects of adriamycin, suggesting its role in this type of heart failure [6]. In the context of cancer, studies have shown that Ccr9 is overexpressed in a variety of malignant tumors, and its activation by CCL25 can interact with signaling pathways related to tumor chemoresistance and metastasis, as demonstrated in various research models [1,4].
In conclusion, Ccr9 plays essential roles in inflammation, immunity, and disease development. Model-based research, especially Ccr9-deficient mouse models, has revealed its functions in diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease, cardiovascular disease, and cancer, providing insights into potential therapeutic targets for these conditions.
