Overview of Gene Research
CXCL17 is the last described chemokine, which is abundantly and specifically expressed in mucosal sites [1]. It is thought to potentially exhibit chemotactic, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial activities under multiple biological conditions, and may be involved in processes like recruiting myeloid cells, regulating angiogenesis, and defending against pathogenic microorganisms [4]. Its receptor is still not well-determined, though GPR35 has been suggested as a putative receptor, though this has been questioned [3].
In a mouse model of liver ischemia-reperfusion injury, endothelial YAP/TEAD1-CXCL17 signaling was found to recruit myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), which alleviated liver IRI-induced inflammation and damage by inhibiting M1 macrophage polarization [2]. In a mouse model of aerosol infection with the hypervirulent Mycobacterium tuberculosis HN878 strain, CXCL17 production increased in the lung during acute and chronic stages of infection, but CXCL17-/-mice were not more susceptible to TB than wild-type animals, suggesting a dispensable role during pulmonary TB [6]. In C57BL/6 male mice exposed to diesel exhaust emissions (DEE), AAV5-CXCL17 enhanced macrophage recruitment and clearance of DEE in the lungs, improving respiratory parameters, airway injury, and airway remodeling [5].
In conclusion, CXCL17 appears to play roles in inflammation-related processes such as liver ischemia-reperfusion injury, DEE-induced lung damage, and potentially in anti-microbial defense during tuberculosis infection. The use of gene knockout mouse models in these studies has provided insights into the specific functions of CXCL17 in these disease-relevant biological processes, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target in certain disease areas.
