Candidate gene
Marker
  • may be a useful prognostic biomarker for Chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (CHP)
  • measurement of tumor associated macrophages (TAMs) and CCL15 in follicular thyroid lesions may be applied clinically to differentiate follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC)from follicular adenoma (FA)

    blockade of CCL15-CCR1 axis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) could be an effective anticancer therapy
    immunologyinflammatory 
    CCR1 and CCL15 may be a potential target for treating inflammatory diseases involving upregulation of cell adhesion molecules
    allergyasthm 
    targeting the production of CCL15 by Airway smooth muscle cells (ASMC) might reduce the inflammatory response within the airways of asthmatic patients
