Expression and Characterization of the Chemokine Receptors CCR2 and CCR5 in Mice [PDF]
Abstract The chemokine receptors CCR2 and CCR5 play important roles in the recruitment of monocytes/macrophages and T cells. To better understand the role of both receptors in murine models of inflammatory diseases and to recognize potential problems when correlating these data to humans, we have generated mAbs against murine CCR2 and

Monocytes play a significant role in the pathogenesis of most inflammatory diseases, including autoimmune diseases. Herein, different subpopulations of monocytes often play differential, partially antagonistic roles, in the regulation of tissue ...

CCR2 acts as scavenger for CCL2 during monocyte chemotaxis.
BackgroundLeukocyte migration is essential for effective host defense against invading pathogens and during immune homeostasis. A hallmark of the regulation of this process is the presentation of chemokines in gradients stimulating leukocyte chemotaxis ...

We reported previously that α1-adrenoceptor (α1-AR) ligands inhibit chemokine receptor (CR) heteromerization partners of α1B/D-AR. The underlying mechanisms are unknown and in vivo evidence for such effects is missing.

CCR2 regulates the uptake of bone marrow-derived fibroblasts in renal fibrosis. [PDF]
Recent studies have shown that bone marrow-derived fibroblasts contribute significantly to the pathogenesis of renal fibrosis. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the recruitment of bone marrow-derived fibroblasts into the kidney are ...

Differential expression of chemokine receptors on monocytes in TB and HIV S
In the present study, we defined multiple chemokine receptors expressed by classical, intermediate and non-classical monocyte subsets in TB, HIV and TB/HIV co-infection and associate it with the perturbation of monocyte subsets due to the diseases ...

Genetic variation at the chemokine receptors CCR5/CCR2 in myocardial infarction [PDF]
Our objective was to examine the association between myocardial infarction (MI) and two DNA-polymorphisms at the proinflammatory chemokine receptors CCR2 (I64V) and CCR5 (32 bp deletion, (Delta)ccr5), defining if these polymorphisms influence the age for the onset of MI. A total of 214 patients with an age at the first MI episode

Chemokine Receptor CCR2 Is Not Essential for the Development of Experimental Cerebral Malaria [PDF]
ABSTRACTInfection withPlasmodium bergheiANKA induces cerebral malaria in susceptible mice. Brain-sequestered CD8+T cells are responsible for this pathology. We have evaluated the role of CCR2, a chemokine receptor expressed on CD8+T cells. Infected CCR2-deficient mice were as susceptible to cerebral malaria as wild-type mice were, and CD8+T-cell ...

Association of CCR2 Gene but not CCR5 Gene Polymorphisms with Alzheimer’s Disease [PDF]
Chemokines participate in the regulation of immune and inflammatory responses by interacting with their specific receptors on related immune and inflammatory cells such as B-lymphocytes, T-lymphocytes and antigen-presenting cells.
