The Quantikine Canine MCP-1 Immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid-phase ELISA designed to measure canine MCP-1 in cell culture supernates, serum, and plasma. It contains E. coli-expressed recombinant canine MCP-1 and antibodies raised against the recombinant protein. Results obtained for naturally occurring canine MCP-1 showed linear curves that were parallel to the standard curves obtain...ed using the Quantikine kit standards. These results indicate that this kit can be used to determine relative mass values for natural canine MCP-1.
Store the unopened product at 2 - 8 °C. Do not use past expiration date.

Background
CCL2/JE/MCP-1, is a chemokine that binds the receptor CCR2 and induces the chemoattraction of mononuclear cells. It induces the activation of monocytes, NK cells, lymphocytes, and basophils. Additionally, CCL2 promotes Th2 polarization in CD4+ T cells, and CCL2-mediated recruitment of monocytes to sites of inflammation contributes to disease severity in atherosclerosis, multiple sclerosis, and allergic asthma. Endogenous proteolytic trimming of CCL2 at the N-terminus, including the N-terminal pyrrolidone carboxylic acid-modified glutamine, downregulates activity but not receptor binding.
