Atypical chemokine receptors (ACKRs) play pivotal roles in immune regulation by binding chemokines and regulating their spatial distribution without inducing G-protein activation. Recently, GPR182, provisionally named ACKR5, was identified as a novel ACKR expressed in microvascular and lymphatic endothelial cells, with functions in hematopoietic stem cell homeostasis. Here, we comprehensively investigated the chemokine binding profile of human and mouse GPR182. Competitive binding assays using flow cytometry revealed that besides CXCL10, CXCL12 and CXCL13, also human and mouse CXCL11, CXCL14 and CCL25, as well as human CCL1, CCL11, CCL19, CCL26, XCL1 and mouse CCL22, CCL24, CCL27 and CCL28 bind with an affinity of less than 100 nM to GPR182...
