It plays a critical role in attracting immune cells to sites of inflammation. MCP4 achieves this through its interaction with G protein-coupled receptors particularly CCR2 and CCR3. The protein is primarily expressed in tissues involved in immune responses including lymph nodes spleen and bone marrow. It exhibits high expression levels at sites of allergic inflammation suggesting a specific role in these processes.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nMCP4 functions by mediating the recruitment of monocytes eosinophils and T lymphocytes. It is not part of a larger protein complex but rather operates as part of the chemokine signaling family. MCP4 is particularly active in coordinating responses to allergens and pathogens therefore highlighting its importance in the body's defense mechanisms. As a member of the C-C motif chemokine family it shares structural characteristics with other chemokines like CCL11 which participate in similar immune cell trafficking functions.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nMCP4 is deeply involved in inflammatory and immune pathways specifically the chemokine signaling pathway and the cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction pathway. MCP4 guides immune cells allowing them to respond effectively to cytokine signals ensuring their migration to necessary sites. Through the chemokine signaling pathway it collaborates with related chemokines like CCL5 to enhance immune responses. Its interaction with these pathways highlights its role in both routine immunity and inflammatory responses positioning it as an important player in maintaining immune homeostasis.\u003cbr\u003e\nMCP4 correlates with conditions such as asthma and allergic rhinitis. Both of these conditions involve chronic inflammation where MCP4's role becomes more pronounced. In asthma the protein contributes to the recruitment of eosinophils and other immune cells that drive the inflammatory processes. MCP4 interactions with proteins like CCR3 are significant in exacerbating symptoms of allergic disorders making it an important target for therapeutic research aimed at modulating inflammatory responses in these diseases.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46845101703337,"sku":"ab94142","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab94142","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
