Acts as a ligand for C-C chemokine receptor CCR2 (PubMed:10529171, PubMed:10587439, PubMed:9837883). Signals through binding and activation of CCR2 and induces a strong chemotactic response and mobilization of intracellular calcium ions (PubMed:10587439, PubMed:9837883). Exhibits a chemotactic activity for monocytes and basophils but not neutrophils or eosinophils (PubMed:8195247, PubMed:8627182, PubMed:9792674). May be involved in the recruitment of monocytes into the arterial wall during the disease process of atherosclerosis (PubMed:8107690).

Abcam's MCP1 Human ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit is an in vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative measurement of Human MCP1 in serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants.
This assay employs an antibody specific for Human MCP1 coated on a 96-well plate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and MCP1 present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. The wells are washed and biotinylated anti-Human MCP1 antibody is added. After washing away unbound biotinylated antibody, HRP-conjugated streptavidin is pipetted to the wells. The wells are again washed, a TMB substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of Leptin bound. The Stop Solution changes the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.

MCP-1 also known as CCL2 is a chemokine involved in the recruitment of monocytes to sites of injury and inflammation. This protein consists of 76 amino acids and has a molecular weight of about 11 kDa. MCP-1 is expressed in a wide range of cell types including endothelial cells fibroblasts and monocytes. It acts by binding to the chemokine receptor CCR2 stimulating intracellular signaling pathways that mediate cell migration.
The role of MCP-1 is significant in guiding immune cells to areas requiring immune response. It does not form part of a complex but operates as a singular entity to affect immune signaling. MCP-1 influences the behavior of monocytes and macrophages by inducing chemotaxis and activating their effector functions. Through this mechanism it aids in the inflammatory response and tissue repair.
MCP-1 participates in the inflammatory pathways by cooperating with key proteins like CCR2. It facilitates the JAK-STAT signaling pathway which is vital for transmitting extracellular information into cellular responses. The interaction of MCP-1 with CCR2 influences the activation of downstream proteins like STAT3 enabling various immune responses. MCP-1 thereby plays a central role in modulating inflammation-related pathways.
MCP-1 has a connection to inflammatory bowel disease and atherosclerosis. In such conditions elevated levels of MCP-1 can exacerbate inflammatory responses by recruiting monocytes to dysfunctional sites worsening tissue damage. Through its interaction with CCR2 MCP-1 becomes a pivotal factor in chronic inflammation. Targeting this MCP-1/CCR2 axis can provide therapeutic opportunities for modulating disease progression in these inflammatory diseases.
