CXCR2 is central to neutrophil chemotaxis and hence to some inflammatory diseases. Here the authors demonstrate the value of an epitope-guided antibody panning method to develop a tight binding anti-hCXCR2 antibody, along with crystal structures of this antibody and antigen, that can block neutrophil chemotaxis and protect mice in an EAE model.
