Supplementary information

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.
Biological function summary

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.

Pathways

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.

General info

Function

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).

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the intercrine beta (chemokine CC) family.

Post-translational modifications

Processing at the N-terminus can regulate receptor and target cell selectivity (PubMed:8627182). Deletion of the N-terminal residue converts it from an activator of basophil to an eosinophil chemoattractant (PubMed:8627182).. N-Glycosylated.
