To understand the involvement of CXCL12 in tumor dissemination, it is necessary to separate the role of the chemokine itself from that of the CXCR4 and CXCR7 receptors, as well as the level of expression of CXCL12 in the primary tumor and the sites of metastatic implantation where it is highly expressed [52,78]. This evidence concerns the gene CXCL12 and neoplasm.
