CD196, also known as CCR6, is a member of the beta chemokine receptor family and is characterized by a seven transmembrane structure similar to G protein-coupled receptors. This receptor uniquely binds to macrophage inflammatory protein 3 alpha (MIP-3alpha/CCL20), which acts as a chemoattractant for dendritic cells, effector/memory T cells, and B cells. CCR6 is preferentially expressed by immature dendritic cells and memory T cells, playing a crucial role in host defense and inflammation at epithelial sites. It is important for B-lineage maturation and antigen-driven B-cell differentiation, and it regulates the migration and recruitment of dendritic and T cells during inflammatory and immunological responses. Additionally, CCR6 has been implicated in the differentiation of Th17 cells and the development of CD4+FoxP3+ regulatory T cells, highlighting its role in immune regulation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been described for this gene, further emphasizing its functional diversity in immune processes.
