ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • Mcp1 -/- mice synthesized extremely low levels of interleukin-4, interleukin-5, and interleukin-10
  • in Gjb1-deficient mice (Cx32def), Ccl2 is upregulated in a MEK–ERK-dependent manner (CCL2 reduction is a promising strategy to treat CMT1 neuropathies, particularly in disease forms where axon damage is predominant as in Cx32def mice and the corresponding human disorder, CMT1X)
  • macrophages from Ccr2-null mice were not capable of promoting trans-endothelial migration of tumour cells
