CXC chemokine receptor 7 (CXCR7) is highly expressed in various type of cancers and promotes cancer progression and metastasis. However, the biological role and regulation of CXCR7 in gastric cancer remains unclear, and little is known about compounds that modulate CXCR7. Here, we investigated the role of CXCR7 in gastric tumorigenesis, and the effects of decursin, which is derived from <i>Angelica gigas</i> Nakai, on CXCR7. Our results showed that CXCR7 significantly promoted growth of gastric ...[more]
