Fluorescent ligands targeting the intracellular allosteric binding site of the chemokine receptor CCR2 [PDF]
Fluorescently labeled ligands are versatile molecular tools to study G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and can be used for a range of different applications, including bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) assays.

Endothelial CCR2 Promotes Pulmonary Metastasis [PDF]
Nine out of ten cancer patients die due to metastasis. The generation of them is dependent on several factors, including the recruitment of inflammatory monocytes and activation of endothelial cells at the pre-metastatic niche. It is at these sites where

Key determinants of selective binding and activation by the monocyte chemoattractant proteins at the chemokine receptor CCR2 [PDF]
Chemokines and their receptors collectively orchestrate the trafficking of leukocytes in normal immune function and inflammatory diseases. Different chemokines can induce distinct responses at the same receptor.

Both Cerebral and Hematopoietic Deficiencies in CCR2 Result in Uncontrolled Herpes Simplex Virus Infection of the Central Nervous System in Mice. [PDF]
CCR2 is a chemokine receptor expressed on the surface of blood leukocytes, particularly «Ly6Chi» inflammatory monocytes and microglia. Signaling through this receptor is thought to influence the immune activity of microglia as well as monocytes egress ...
