Target data
Function
High affinity receptor for the C-C type chemokines CCL17/TARC and CCL22/MDC. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G(i) proteins which activate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. Could play a role in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced endotoxic shock. In the CNS, could mediate hippocampal-neuron survival.
Alternative names
CD194, Cmkbr4, C-C chemokine receptor type 4, C-C CKR-4, CC-CKR-4, CCR-4, CCR4

- Activity summary
CCR4 also known as C-C chemokine receptor type 4 is a G protein-coupled receptor with the molecular mass of approximately 41 kDa. It is predominantly expressed on the surface of T-helper 2 cells regulatory T cells and certain dendritic cells. CCR4 functions by binding chemokines such as CCL17 and CCL22 facilitating chemotaxis of immune cells to sites of inflammation. Researchers often refer to antibodies targeting CCR4 like mogamulizumab when studying immune responses.
- Biological function summary
CCR4 plays an important role in the trafficking of immune cells to inflammatory sites therefore regulating immune response and tolerance. It is part of the chemokine receptor family which is integral to the immune system's function. CCR4 helps maintain the balance between effector and regulatory T cells contributing to immunological homeostasis. Its involvement in migration and positioning of immune cells within lymphoid and peripheral tissues highlights its importance in maintaining immune surveillance.
- Pathways
CCR4 significantly influences the chemokine signaling pathway which is pivotal in directing the movement and positioning of immune cells. This receptor interacts with key proteins like CCL17 and CCL22 to mediate cell chemotaxis in these pathways. Additionally CCR4 is associated with the T-cell receptor signaling pathway where it coordinates with other receptors and proteins to modulate immune responses.
- Associated diseases and disorders
Increased CCR4 expression has connections with various conditions such as adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma and cutaneous T-cell lymphomas. In these diseases CCR4 assists tumor cells in evading the immune system fueling disease progression. Proteins like TARC (thymus and activation-regulated chemokine) and MDC (macrophage-derived chemokine) ligands for CCR4 often facilitate tumor cell migration and proliferation. Therapeutic approaches targeting CCR4 such as the anti-CCR4 antibody mogamulizumab have shown potential in treating these malignancies by disrupting these interactions.
