CCR2, also known as CC chemokine receptor type 2, is a receptor protein found on the surface of immune cells including macrophages. Chemokine receptors like CCR2 play crucial roles in guiding immune cells to sites of inflammation or infection in the body.

CCR2 is particularly significant in the recruitment of monocytes, which are precursor cells to macrophages, to sites of inflammation. When certain chemokines bind to CCR2, it triggers a signaling cascade that attracts monocytes to the inflamed tissue. Once recruited, monocytes can then differentiate into macrophages, which contribute to the immune response by phagocytosing pathogens, producing inflammatory mediators, and facilitating tissue repair. The interaction between CCR2 and macrophages plays a crucial role in orchestrating the immune response to infection, inflammation, and tissue damage. Dysfunction in this interaction can contribute to various inflammatory diseases and conditions. Creative Biolabs offers tissue-specific macrophage-blocking services based on CCR2 knockout to help you accelerate your specific research on macrophages.
