Role of monocyte chemotactic protein-3 and -4 in children with virus exacerbation of asthma

Abstract: Macrophages play a crucial role in respiratory viral infections. However, the mechanisms by which these cells are recruited locally are not fully understood. The current authors studied the role of the chemokines monocyte chemotactic protein (MCP)-1, -2, -3 and -4 on monocyte/macrophage recruitment during respiratory viral infections. Levels of these chemokines were investigated in nasal aspirates from 6-12-yr-old children suffering from respiratory viral infections, caused by rhinoviruses, influenza viruses, … Show more

“…A role of CCL7 in macrophage recruitment is further highlighted by the observation of a correlation between nasal CCL7 production and the recruitment of macrophages in children with virus-induced asthma (31). A previous report showed IFN-a and IFN-b production by macrophages upon norovirus infection, which was abolished in IRF-3 and IRF-7 double knockout cells (32).…”

“…CCL7 has been observed in nasal aspirates of influenza virus-infected children (40), but its role in influenza pathogenesis has not been determined. Our qPCR validation experiments revealed a Ͼ380-fold increase in CCL7 expression in Calu-3 cells; in mice, CCL7 exhibited profound early upregulation, supporting a role for airway epithelium in CCL7 production.…”

“…on May 10, 2018 by guest http://jvi.asm.org/ Downloaded from regulated inflammatory mediators (e.g., RAGE, CCL5, CCL7, and IL-17F) were not identified as differentially expressed in the previously published mouse study (8) but have been implicated in influenza virus pathogenesis (11,13,40,47). Thus, we also assessed the expression dynamics of two of these factors (CCL7 and IL-17F) by qPCR in Calu-3 cells and mice infected with VN1203 (Fig.…”

“…Eosinophils are involved in allergic inflammation in asthma via several processes, including adhesion to endothelial cells, transendothelial migration, and chemotaxis through monocyte chemoattractant proteins (MCPs) 3,4. The three MCPs (MCP-1, -2, and -3; MIM# 158105, MIM# 602283, and MIM# 158106, respectively) share 51%-78% amino acid homology and activate monocytes via the chemotactic cytokine (CC) β chemokine receptor (CCR) 2.…”
