CCL2/Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-1 regulates inflammatory responses critical to healing myocardial infarcts.
The CC chemokine Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein (MCP)-1/CCL2 has potent mononuclear cell chemo-attractant properties, modulates fibroblast and endothelial cell phenotype and may play an important role in wound healing. In order to examine whether MCP-1 critically regulates myocardial infarct healing, we studied the effects of MCP-1 gene disruption and antibody neutralization in a closed-chest...
متن کاملCritical role of endogenous thrombospondin-1 in preventing expansion of healing myocardial infarcts.
BACKGROUND Matricellular proteins are extracellular matrix proteins that do not contribute directly to tissue integrity but are capable of modulating cell function. We hypothesized that the matricellular protein thrombospondin (TSP)-1, a potent inhibitor of angiogenesis and activator of transforming growth factor (TGF-beta), is induced in healing myocardial infarcts and plays a role in suppress...

متن کاملRole of Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-1 in Myocardial Infarction
Myocardial infarction (MI) is accompanied by inflammatory responses that lead to the recruitment of leukocytes and subsequent myocardial damage, healing, and scar formation. Chemokines are a family of potent chemoattractant cytokines that regulate the leukocyte trafficking in basal levels and inflammatory processes; however, it has been recently recognized that chemokines are expressed by non-h...
