CCR2 is a cell surface receptor which couples to G proteins. It further interacts with the chemokine ligands and its receptors by increasing the intracellular calcium ion level. It exsits as two isoforms and has been found to be involved in monocyte and macrophage differentiation. Here we checked the time course effect of chemotactic agents on CCR2 expression.

Summary

The Good

There is no/less background and the antibody detects the appropriate band.

The Bad

It gives some non-specific bands and it takes some time to get the signal.

The Bottom Line

This antibody is very good for western blotting and there is not much background with this antibody.
