CXCL16 and breast cancer: These results demonstrate that human brain metastasis cancer-associated fibroblasts potently attract breast cancer cells via chemokines CXCL12 and CXCL16, and blocking CXCR6-CXCL16/CXCR4-CXCL12 receptor–ligand interactions may be an effective therapy for preventing breast cancer brain metastasis.
