Chemokines: molecular double agents

Curr Biol. 1996 Dec 1;6(12):1581-2. doi: 10.1016/s0960-9822(02)70777-x.

Abstract

Chemokines are best known as signalling molecules that attract leukocytes to sites of inflammation, but recent results show they are also important regulators of hematopoiesis during development.
