Background

CCR2 is a member of the “CC-branch” of chemokine G protein-coupled receptors that regulate monocyte chemotaxis and T cell migration/activation and drive inflammation in a number of pathological conditions (1). CCR2 is the receptor for several chemokines including MCP-1, MCP-3, and MCP-4 (2-5). CCR2 transduces signals through increases in intracellular calcium levels. It has two alternative isoforms, CCR2A and CCR2B, differing in their carboxy-terminal tails with CCR2B trafficking more efficiently to the membrane (2,6). CCR2 was originally identified in the THP-1 monocyte cell line, and its expression is decreased following differentiation into macrophages (7). Knockout studies demonstrate that CCR2 is a major regulator of macrophage trafficking (8-10). In addition, research studies have shown that CCR2 functions as an alternative coreceptor with CD4 for infection of some strains of HIV (11,12).

Species Reactivity

Species reactivity is determined by testing in at least one approved application (e.g., western blot).

Western Blot Buffer

IMPORTANT: For western blots, incubate membrane with diluted primary antibody in 5% w/v BSA, 1X TBS, 0.1% Tween® 20 at 4°C with gentle shaking, overnight.
