Evidence That CXCL16 Is a Potent Mediator of Angiogenesis and Is Involved in Endothelial Progenitor Cell Chemotaxis: Studies in Mice With K/BxN Serum–Induced Arthritis

Abstract

These results indicate that CXCL16 and its receptor CXCR6 may be a central ligand/receptor pair that is closely associated with EPC recruitment and blood vessel formation in the RA joint.
