Storage Instruction
If unopened the kit may be stored at 2-8°C for up to 1 month. If the kit will not be used within 1 month, store the components separately, according to the component table in the manual.
This kit recognizes Human MCP-1 in samples. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Human MCP-1 and analogues was observed.
Sample Type
Serum, plasma and other biological fluids
Additional Info
Tissue Specificity
Expressed in the seminal plasma, endometrial fluid and follicular fluid (at protein level). Expressed in monocytes.
Post Translational Modifications
Processing at the N-terminus can regulate receptor and target cell selectivity. Deletion of the N-terminal residue converts it from an activator of basophil to an eosinophil chemoattractant. N-Glycosylated.
Function
Acts as a ligand for C-C chemokine receptor CCR2. Signals through binding and activation of CCR2 and induces a strong chemotactic response and mobilization of intracellular calcium ions. Exhibits a chemotactic activity for monocytes and basophils but not neutrophils or eosinophils. May be involved in the recruitment of monocytes into the arterial wall during the disease process of atherosclerosis.
