Expression and regulation of monocyte chemoattractant protein-3 (MCP-3) in fibrosis
… chemokine, monocyte chemoattractant protein-3 (MCP-3/CCL7) in SSc and in murine models for SSc: type 1 tight skin mouse (Tsk1) and a transgenic mouse strain (TβRIIΔk) in which there is fibroblast-directed disruption of TGFβ signalling. The hypothesis that crosstalk between MCP-3 and TGFβ may …

Die Rolle des Tumorsuppressors p53 für die TNF-alpha-vermittelte Induktion des MCP-1-Gens
… Das "Monocyte-Chemoattractant-Protein-1" (MCP-1/CCL2) ist ein wichtiges Mitglied der Chemokin-Familie und löst die Infiltration von Monozyten/Makrophagen aus. Die Expression von MCP-1 tritt bei verschiedenen Krankheiten, die durch den Einstrom von Monozyten charakterisiert sind, auf. Es …

MCP-1, Macrophages and Tumorigenesis in the C3(1)/Sv40Tag Mouse Model of Breast Cancer: Benefits of Quercetin
… is associated with enhanced BrCa risk. MCP-1 is an important chemoattractant released from the tumor microenvironment that contributes to the accumulation of tumor associated macrophages (TAMs). TAMs enhance mammary tumor growth by promoting chronic inflammation, tumor cell invasion, …

Using urinary MCP-1 and TWEAK to assess disease activity in a cohort of South African patients with lupus nephritis
… biomarkers. Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and tumour necrosis factor-like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK) have been implicated in the pathogenesis of LN and are thus potential biomarkers for disease activity monitoring. Methods: In this study urinary MCP-1 (uMCP-1) and TWEAK …

Exposure of 3D organotypic vaginal tissues to semen induces expression of the chemokine MCP-1, but does not alter tissue integrity
… did significantly upregulate the expression of MCP-1, a chemokine that can attract HIV target cells such as CD4+ T cells and macrophages. We believe this research closes an important gap in understanding the impact of semen on vaginal epithelium cells by showing that semen does not have a broad …
