CCL2 Antibody

Product Specifications

Background

CCL2 Antibody: CCL2, also known as monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (MCP1), belongs to the intercrine beta (chemokine CC) family. It is produced by a variety of cell types and is a potent chemoattractant for monocytes, memory T lymphocytes, and natural killer (NK) cells. It is upregulated during infection and inflammation. CCL2 is a potent basophil activator but does not affect eosinophils, whereas the related protein MCP2 stimulates both eosinophils and basophils. MCP3 has been shown to have the broadest range of influence. CCL2 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of diseases characterized by monocytic infiltrates, like psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis or atherosclerosis.
