Introduction
Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) plays a pivotal role in the development of the inflammatory response.1 MCP-1 expression increases at injury sites to direct macrophage recruitment. Mechanistically, MCP-1 binds to the inducible C-C chemokine receptor 2 (CCR2) to promote chemotaxis. There are 2 known subtypes of CCR2, CCR2a and CCR2b. CCR2b is 5-fold more potent than CCR2a in inducing macrophage chemotaxis.
Keywords
