Monocyte Chemotactic Protein 1 (MCP-1), also known as CCL2, is produced by injured or infected tissues. MCP-1 signals through the CCR2 and CCR4 G protein-coupled receptors to recruit memory T cells, monocytes, and dendritic cells to sites of inflammation.Activity Assay
Rat MCP-1 is fully biologically active when compared to standard. The activity is determined by the ability to induce chemotaxis of THP-1 cells.AA Sequence
