When the prefix '치-' is attached to a Korean verb, what kind of change in meaning occurs?

In Korean, the prefix '치-' mainly means 'up' or 'upwards'. For example, '치솟다' adds the meaning of going up to '솟다', resulting in 'to sharply rise'. However, verbs like '치닫다' or '치받다' seem to not directly connect with '닫다' or '받다' despite having the prefix '치-' attached.
Some verbs with '치-' attached gain independent meanings separate from the original words. For instance, '치닫다' means 'to run quickly', and '치받다' means 'to collide with something'. In these cases, the prefix '치-' can extend or transform the original verb meanings.
Are there any other examples or more explanations on how the prefix '치-' brings about changes in meaning? I would like to learn more about the role of Korean prefixes.
