C‐X‐C motif chemokine 12/C‐X‐C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCL12/CXCR4) signaling is involved in ontogenesis, hematopoiesis, immune function and cancer. Recently, the orphan chemokine CXCL14 was reported to inhibit CXCL12‐induced chemotaxis – probably by allosteric modulation of CXCR4. We thus examined the effects of CXCL14 on CXCR4 regulation and function using CXCR4‐transfected human embryonic kidney (HEK293) cells and Jurkat T cells. CXCL14 did not affect dose–response profiles of CXCL12‐induced CXCR4 phosphorylation, G protein‐mediated calcium mobilization, dynamic mass redistribution, kinetics of extracellular signal‐regulated kinase 1 (ERK1) and ERK2 phosphorylation or CXCR4 internalization. Hence, essential CXCL12‐operated functions of CXCR4 are insensitive to CXCL14, suggesting that interactions of CXCL12 and CXCL14 pathways depend on a yet to be identified CXCL14 receptor.
