Product details

Human MCP2 ELISA Kit (ab223856) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of MCP2 protein in cell culture extracts, cell culture supernatant, cit plasma, edta plasma, hep plasma, serum, and tissue extracts. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Human MCP2 with 1.1 pg/ml sensitivity.

SimpleStep ELISA® technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:

- Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less
- High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies
- Fully validated in biological samples
- 96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells strips

A 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.

Monocyte chemoattractant protein 2 (MCP2), known also as C-C motif chemokine 8 (CCL8) is chemotactic factor that attracts monocytes, lymphocytes, basophils and eosinophils. Chemokines and their receptors, in conjunction with adhesion molecules and their ligands, provide cues to enable tissue-specific homing of T cells in the steady state and during inflammation. The processed form MCP2(6-76) does not show monocyte chemotactic activity, but inhibits the chemotactic effect most predominantly of CCL7, and also of CCL2 and CCL5 and MCP2. MCP2 protein can bind heparin.

MCP2 also known as CCL8 or monocyte chemoattractant protein-2 plays an important role in leukocyte trafficking. This chemokine has a molecular weight of approximately 8 kDa. CCL8 is expressed in various tissues including macrophages fibroblasts and endothelial cells and it is particularly high during inflammatory responses. The MCP2 protein attracts immune cells such as monocytes and T cells to sites of infection or injury.
Biological function summary

MCP2 influences the migration and activation of leukocytes enhancing the body's immune response. MCP2 interacts with chemokine receptors like CCR2 and CCR5 facilitating the movement of immune cells through tissues. This protein is not usually part of larger complexes but works closely with other chemokines to coordinate cellular responses during inflammation. MCP2 activity is important in processes that require rapid cell recruitment and immune surveillance.

Pathways

MCP2 functions within the chemokine signaling pathway and plays a significant part in the inflammatory response pathway. MCP2 closely interacts with chemokine receptors such as CCR2 which is also engaged by related chemokines like MCP1 (CCL2). MCP2 and MCP1 share functional similarities in modulating the immune response though they target different receptor profiles that expand their influence across numerous immune processes.

MCP2 is associated with inflammatory diseases and certain types of cancer. Rheumatoid arthritis shows heightened levels of MCP2 contributing to the persistent inflammation characteristic of the disorder. Elevated MCP2 levels have also been noticed in tumor microenvironments suggesting a role in cancer metastasis where it might interact with proteins such as IL-6 to promote the survival and migration of tumor cells.
