Receptor for the C-C type chemokine CCL20 (PubMed:9169459). Binds to CCL20 and subsequently transduces a signal by increasing the intracellular calcium ion levels (PubMed:20068036). Although CCL20 is its major ligand it can also act as a receptor for non-chemokine ligands such as beta-defensins (PubMed:25585877). Binds to defensin DEFB1 leading to increase in intracellular calcium ions and cAMP levels. Its binding to DEFB1 is essential for the function of DEFB1 in regulating sperm motility and bactericidal activity (PubMed:25122636). Binds to defensins DEFB4 and DEFB4A/B and mediates their chemotactic effects (PubMed:20068036). The ligand-receptor pair CCL20-CCR6 is responsible for the chemotaxis of dendritic cells (DC), effector/ memory T-cells and B-cells and plays an important role at skin and mucosal surfaces under homeostatic and inflammatory conditions, as well as in pathology, including cancer and various autoimmune diseases. CCR6-mediated signals are essential for immune responses to microbes in the intestinal mucosa and in the modulation of inflammatory responses initiated by tissue insult and trauma (PubMed:21376174). CCR6 is essential for the recruitment of both the pro-inflammatory IL17 producing helper T-cells (Th17) and the regulatory T-cells (Treg) to sites of inflammation. Required for the normal migration of Th17 cells in Peyers-patches and other related tissue sites of the intestine and plays a role in regulating effector T-cell balance and distribution in inflamed intestine. Plays an important role in the coordination of early thymocyte precursor migration events important for normal subsequent thymocyte precursor development, but is not required for the formation of normal thymic natural regulatory T-cells (nTregs). Required for optimal differentiation of DN2 and DN3 thymocyte precursors. Essential for B-cell localization in the subepithelial dome of Peyers-patches and for efficient B-cell isotype switching to IgA in the Peyers-patches. Essential for appropriate anatomical distribution of memory B-cells in the spleen and for the secondary recall response of memory B-cells (By similarity). Positively regulates sperm motility and chemotaxis via its binding to CCL20 (PubMed:23765988).

CCR6 also known as CD196 is a chemokine receptor with a molecular mass of approximately 44 kDa. This protein is primarily expressed on the surface of various immune cells including T cells B cells and dendritic cells. Through its interaction with its only known ligand CCL20 also known as MIP-3α CCR6 mediates chemotaxis which guides the targeted migration of cells to sites of inflammation or injury. In murine models (mouse) CCR6 expression helps researchers examine immune responses in vivo and its presence is detected using recombinant proteins or antibodies specific for CCR6 such as 'CCR6 antibodies' with techniques including flow cytometry utilizing labels like CCR6-APC or CCR6-fluorochrome.
CCR6 plays an essential role in the regulation of immune responses and maintaining mucosal immunity. It is involved in the recruitment of Th17 cells and dendritic cells to inflamed tissues which plays a critical role in initiating and sustaining immune responses. While CCR6 operates primarily as a standalone receptor its engagement influences diverse cellular functions linked to immune surveillance and tolerance. This receptor's expression on lymphoid tissue inducer cells indicates its relevance in the formation of secondary lymphoid organs and in dynamic interactions within the immune system.
CCR6 is a significant component in pathways related to immune cell trafficking and inflammatory responses particularly the MAPK/ERK pathway and the JAK/STAT pathway. In these pathways CCR6 often interacts with related proteins such as CCL20 and other chemokine receptors facilitating cellular migration and activation processes. These interactions underpin the migration of regulatory T cells and B cells which modulate inflammation and affect pathogen clearance ensuring a controlled immune response.
CCR6 has links to conditions such as autoimmune diseases with rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease being notable examples. In rheumatoid arthritis the dysregulated expression of CCR6 attracts Th17 cells into synovial tissues promoting inflammation. Meanwhile inflammatory bowel disease shows a similar pattern of CCR6-mediated chemotaxis that encourages Th17 cell recruitment. In these contexts CCR6 cooperates with other immune mediators like CCL20 to perpetuate disease-related inflammatory processes highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target in immune modulation.
