Circulatory CCL2 distinguishes Duchenne muscular dystrophy dogs
ABSTRACT To establish a minimally invasive approach to studying body-wide muscle inflammation in the canine Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) model, we evaluated 13 cytokines/chemokines in frozen sera from 90 affected (239 sera) and 73 normal (189 sera) dogs (0.00 to 45.2 months of age). Linear mixed-effects model analysis suggested that

The RNA-binding protein HuR modulates the expression of the disease-linked CCL2 rs1024611G-rs13900T haplotype [PDF]
CC-chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2) is involved in the pathogenesis of several diseases associated with monocyte/macrophage recruitment, such as HIV-associated neurocognitive disorder (HAND), tuberculosis, and atherosclerosis.

CCL2/CCR2 signaling in cancer pathogenesis [PDF]
AbstractChemokines are a family of small cytokines, which guide a variety of immune/inflammatory cells to the site of tumor in tumorigenesis. A dysregulated expression of chemokines is implicated in different types of cancer including prostate cancer.

The Vascular Circadian Clock in Chronic Kidney Disease
Chronic kidney disease is associated with extremely high cardiovascular mortality. The circadian rhythms (CR) have an impact on vascular function. The disruption of CR causes serious health problems and contributes to the development of cardiovascular ...

Chemokines during anaphylaxis: the importance of CCL2 and CCL2-dependent chemotactic activity for basophils [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundThe role of chemokines in anaphylaxis is unclear.MethodsWe prospectively recruited 49 patients presenting to the emergency department with an acute episode of anaphylaxis and 28 healthy subjects. We measured serum levels of the chemokines CCL2, CCL5, CCL7, CCL8, CCL11, CCL13, CCL17, CCL21, CCL22, CCL24, and CCL26, tryptase, the ...

Introduction. Serum chemokines are inflammatory mediators, which role is shown in the occurrence and progression of a number of malignant tumors. Produced by white blood cells, stem cells, tumor and endothelial cells, chemokines control their movement ...

CCL2 Blockade Augments Cancer Immunotherapy [PDF]
Abstract Altering the immunosuppressive microenvironment that exists within a tumor will likely be necessary for cancer vaccines to trigger an effective antitumor response. Monocyte chemoattractant proteins (such as CCL2) are produced by many tumors and have both direct and indirect immunoinhibitory effects.

CCL2-CCR2 Signaling in Disease Pathogenesis [PDF]
The role of chemokines and their receptors in controlling several physiological and pathological processes has only become evident in the last couple of years. From a sole function of chemo-attraction, our view on chemokine receptor activation has switched to the regulation of pleiotropic signaling pathways influencing numerous molecular and cellular ...
