A schematic showing how chemokines recruit leukocytes. Each step affords an opportunity for regulation and modulation of chemokine function. Chemokine ligands are shown as green circles, and the receptors are shown in brown as a series of stacked lines (corresponding to the 7 transmembrane helices). Chemokine ligand dimerization is shown but receptor dimerization is not shown for simplicity
