This receptor was identified as a gene induced by the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), and is thought to be a mediator of EBV effects on B lymphocytes. This receptor is expressed in various lymphoid tissues and activates B and T lymphocytes. It has been shown to control the migration of memory T cells to inflamed tissues, as well as stimulate dendritic cell maturation. To map the CCR7 gene in chicken chromosome, a 6 000 rads chicken-hamster radiation hybrid panel (ChickRH6) was used. PCR of samples from ChickRH6 revealed that the location of CCR7 gene is linked to the maker SEQ0347 (6 cR away) with LOD score of 16.6 and that the marker SEQ0347 is located on chromosome 27 at 27 cR of RH (radiation hydrid) map. We compared the corresponding human mRNA sequence with the predicted coding sequence of chicken CCR7 gene, and found that the assembled contig shared a high percentage of similarity with that of the human gene.展开更多

A specific GSTNH2terminus of muCCR5 fusion protein antibody F(ab′)2 was prepared and clarified. RTPCR and immunohistochemical analysis were used to observe the expression level of CCR5 gene in mice.RESULTS A positive reaction of mouse macrophage was found in DTH but not expressed in P.acnes induced fulminant hepatitis by RTPCR and immunohistochemical analysis.CONCLUSION This muCCR5 expression may be involved in an allergic process mediated by cellular immunity but not acute inflammatory reaction induced by P.acnes..展开更多
