Biochem/physiol Actions
Chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 7 (CCL7) is a small cytokine known as a chemokine, earlier called as monocyte-specific chemokine 3 (MCP3). It regulates macrophage functions. It belongs to the monocyte chemotactic protein (MCP) subfamily of the CC chemokines and is produced by astrocytes. The CCL7 gene is mapped to chromosome 17 on subbands q11.2-q12. It induces production of gelatinase B and chemotaxis of monocytes. It is often produced by tumor cell lines and regulates protease secretion by macrophages. CCL7 production may contribute to invasion and metastasis of cancer cells. It may act as a novel target metastasis of colorectal cancer (CRC) and may be of potential clinical value for the prevention of hepatic recurrences. CCL7 may have a role in vascular pathology as well.

Monocyte chemotactic protein-3 (MCP-3), also known as CCL7, belongs to the monocyte chemotactic protein (MCP) subfamily of the CC chemokines that includes MCP-1/CCL2, MCP-2/CCL8, MCP-4/CCL13, and MCP-5/CCL12. Few studies have examined the role of MCP-3 in vascular pathologies such as
Monocyte chemotactic proteins (MCPs) are chemokines involved in macrophage recruitment during inflammation and cancer. A full-size MCP-3 cDNA was used to isolate the functional human MCP-3 gene. Based on restriction analysis, subclones were selected and the MCP-3 gene sequence was

When human MG-63 osteosarcoma cells are triggered with IL-1 beta, they produce, among various other cytokines, also monocyte chemotactic proteins (MCPs). Homogeneous MCP-1, MCP-2 and MCP-3 were found to induce production of gelatinase B and chemotaxis of monocytes. Based on

Monocyte/macrophages and activated lymphocytes traffic through normal brain, and this trafficking is increased in inflammatory conditions such as HIV encephalitis (HIVE). HIVE is characterized in part by perivascular accumulations of macrophages. The earliest events in this process are poorly understood
The main cause of death for colorectal cancer (CRC) patients is the development of metastatic lesions at sites distant from the primary tumor. Therefore, it is important to find biomarkers that are related to the metastasis and to study the
