Motixafortide |
Motixafortide is an inhibitor of the C-X-C Motif Chemokine Receptor 4 (CXCR4) and blocks the binding of its cognate ligand, stromal-derived factor-1α (SDF-1α)/C-X-C Motif Chemokine Ligand 12 (CXCL12). SDF-1α and CXCR4 play a role in the trafficking and homing on human hematopoietic stem cells to the marrow compartment. |
