Description

EPI-X4, an endogenous peptide inhibitor, has exhibited potential as a blocker of CXCR4—a G protein-coupled receptor. This unique inhibitor demonstrates the ability to impede HIV-1 infection and halt CXCR4-dependent processes such as tumor cell migration and invagination. Despite its promising effects, a comprehensive understanding of the interaction between EPI-X4 and CXCR4 under natural conditions remains elusive due to experimental limitations.
