Published in 2022 at "FEBS Letters"

DOI: 10.1002/1873-3468.14463

Abstract: Previously, we reported that chemokine (C‐C motif) receptor 2 (CCR2) heteromerizes with α1B‐adrenoceptor (α1B‐AR) in leukocytes, through which α1B‐AR controls CCR2. Whether such heteromers are expressed in human vascular smooth muscle cells (hVSMCs) is unknown.… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Biochemical and biophysical research communications"

DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2017.02.085

Abstract: Monocyte migration is a key element in atherosclerosis. LDL-C facilitates monocyte migration via induction of CCR2. PCSK9 regulates cell surface expression of the LDL-R and is expressed in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). The present… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Kidney international"

DOI: 10.1016/j.kint.2016.09.042

Abstract: Inflammation is a central pathophysiologic mechanism that contributes to diabetes mellitus and diabetic nephropathy. Recently, we showed that macrophages directly contribute to diabetic renal injury and that pharmacological blockade or genetic deficiency of chemokine (C-C… read more here.
