    Background
    Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1/CCL2) is a member of the C-C chemokine family and functions as a potent chemotactic factor for monocytes. It is considered identical to JE, a gene originally identified in mouse fibroblasts as being induced by platelet-derived growth factor. The human MCP-1 gene is located on chromosome 17q11.2 and encodes a protein of 76 amino acids with a molecular weight of approximately 13 kDa. MCP-1 belongs to a subfamily of chemokines that includes at least four members: MCP-1, MCP-2, MCP-3, and MCP-4. CCL2 is produced by a wide variety of cell types, either constitutively or in response to stimuli such as oxidative stress, cytokines, and growth factors. Its sources include endothelial cells, fibroblasts, epithelial cells, smooth muscle cells, mesangial cells, astrocytes, monocytes, and microglia—cell types that play important roles in antiviral immune defense in both circulation and tissues. Functionally, CCL2 directs the migration and infiltration of monocytes, memory T cells, and natural killer (NK) cells. The biological effects of CCL2 are mediated through its receptor, CCR2, whose expression is more restricted compared to that of CCL2. CCR2 exists in two alternatively spliced isoforms, CCR2A and CCR2B, which differ only at their C-terminal regions.
