CCL2: a Chemokine Potentially Promoting Early Seeding of the Latent HIV Reservoir
There are currently over 35 million people living with HIV worldwide, and we still have no vaccine or scalable cure. One of the difficulties with HIV is its ability to rapidly establish a viral reservoir in lymphoid tissues that allows it to elude antivirals and the immune system.

CCL2/CCR2 Regulates the Tumor Microenvironment in HER-2/neu-Driven Mammary Carcinomas in Mice.
Chronic inflammation is a hallmark of cancer. Inflammatory chemokines, such as C-C chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2), are often present in tumors but their roles in cancer initiation and maintenance are not clear.

Macrophages are key targets of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection and main producers of the proinflammatory chemokine CC chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2), whose expression is induced by HIV-1 both in vitro and in vivo.

Background Infiltration of colorectal carcinomas (CRC) with T-cells has been associated with good prognosis. There are some indications that chemokines could be involved in T-cell infiltration of tumors.

Chemokines in ICU Delirium: An Exploratory Study
OBJECTIVES:. The pathophysiology of delirium is complex and incompletely understood. Inflammation is hypothesized to be integral to its development due to effects on blood brain barrier integrity, facilitation of leukocyte extravasation into brain ...

Immune response CC chemokines CCL2 and CCL5 are associated with pulmonary sarcoidosis [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundPulmonary sarcoidosis involves an intense leukocyte infiltration of the lung with the formation of non-necrotizing granulomas. CC chemokines (chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2 (CCL2)-CCL5) are chemoattractants of mononuclear cells and act through seven transmembrane G-coupled receptors.

The Role of Serum CC-Chemokine Ligand 2 (CCL2) in Obesity: A Comparative Study with Normal Subjects [PDF]
Excess fat in the visceral area in the form of obesity is associated with metabolic syndrome. Various factors have been identified that contribute to the pathophysiology of obesity-related metabolic diseases, including chronic inflammatory factors and ...

Genetic variants of chemokine CCL2 and chemokine receptor CCR2 genes and risk of prostate cancer
Chemokines and their receptors acts as mediators of migration of immune cells to the site of inflammation and deregulated inflammatory response is associated with increased risk of cancer. We performed a case-control study to analyze the frequencies of CCL2 (I/D, rs3917887), -2518 (A > G, rs1024611), and CCR2 (G > A, rs1799864) polymorphisms for ...

Coordinated Post-Transcriptional Regulation of the Chemokine System: Messages from CCL2 [PDF]
The molecular cross-talk between epithelium and immune cells in the airway mucosa is a key regulator of homeostatic immune surveillance and is crucially involved in the development of chronic lung inflammatory diseases. The patterns of gene expression that follow the sensitization process occurring in allergic asthma and chronic rhinosinusitis and ...

CCR2 improves tumor directed CAR-T cell trafficking in ovarian cancer
Solid tumors present a significant challenge to Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) -T cell therapy, primarily due to limited T-cell infiltration and persistence in the tumor microenvironment.
