“…101 CCL20, which binds to CCR6, may also serve as a mediator of inflammation and fibrosis in the setting of alcoholic liver disease. 102 Of note, in vivo knockdown of CCL20 reduced LPS-associated hepatic damage, suggesting its role as a mediator linking hepatic inflammation, injury, and fibrosis in alcoholic hepatitis. 102 Among CC chemokines, CCL2 has recently been suggested to play a role in alcohol-related damage, because its liver and plasma levels were associated with disease severity and with inflammation, including neutrophil infiltration, but not with steatosis, in patients with alcoholic liver disease.…”
