Biological function summary
CXCR2 plays significant roles in mediating inflammatory responses and is part of the chemokine receptor family. It functions by promoting chemotaxis of neutrophils to sites of inflammation infection or injury. This receptor operates with other chemokine receptors in the recruitment and migration of different immune cells helping coordinate an effective immune response. CXCR2 does not function alone and often interacts with other cell surface receptors and signaling molecules during immune responses.
Pathways
CXCR2 contributes prominently to the chemokine signaling pathway and the inflammatory response pathway. It interacts closely with proteins like CXCR1 another chemokine receptor to perform its functions. These interactions can activate downstream signaling cascades involving MAPK and PI3K pathways which are important for various cellular responses like proliferation survival and migration.

General info
Function
Receptor for interleukin-8 which is a powerful neutrophil chemotactic factor (PubMed : 1891716). Binding of IL-8 to the receptor causes activation of neutrophils. This response is mediated via a G-protein that activates a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system (PubMed : 8662698). Binds to IL-8 with high affinity. Also binds with high affinity to CXCL3, GRO/MGSA and NAP-2 (PubMed : 1891716). Involved in the homeostatic wound healing response to tissue injury, a multistep cascade that guides neutrophil migration to necrotic sites while avoiding collateral damage of healthy tissues. Signals intravascular neutrophil chemotaxis to the injury site.
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
Post-translational modifications
Phosphorylated upon ligand binding; which is required for desensitization.. (Microbial infection) Proteolytically cleaved by Staphylococcus aureus staphopain A/SspP. This cleavage inhibits CXCR2-dependent neutrophil activation and chemotaxis.
