Chemokines--their involvement in pathology.
Chemokines have a major role both in the immune inflammatory reactions and in the viral infection. The chemokines initiate the chemotactic migration of the leukocytes, with a role to play in the angiogenesis, in the collagen production and proliferation of the hematopoietic precursors as well.
