Coronary artery disease (CAD) is an immune-mediated disease in which CCR2 attracts
classical, intermediate, and non-classical monocytes to the arterial intima where they …

Abstract Monocyte chemokine receptor 2 (CCR2) and phosphorylated extra-cellular
regulated kinase 1 & 2 (ERK1/2) impact macrophage differentiation and progression of …

The innate immune response is generally considered to have an important role in tissue
remodeling following resistance exercise. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to …

High blood pressure (BP) and monocyte activation are associated with atherogenic
processes. Especially, CD16 expressing monocytes are shown to be activated in many …

CC-chemokine receptor 2 (CCR2) and its ligand, monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1,
also known as CCL2), are crucial for the recruitment of monocytes/macrophages to sites of …

Physical exercise is important for proper cardiovascular function and disease prevention, but
it may influence the immune system. We evaluated the effect of strenuous exercise on …

Abstract Circulating interleukin (IL)‐6 and IL‐10 concentrations are widely used to evaluate
the anti‐inflammatory effects of exercise but do not capture cytokine action at the cellular …

Purpose: To examine the impact of polyphenol supplementation on the recruitment,
mobilization and activation of monocyte subsets following resistance exercise. Methods …

Aims Circulating monocytes infiltrate the plaque and differentiate into macrophages,
contributing to an inflammatory environment which is associated with higher risk of …

Aims Inflammation plays an essential role in the atherosclerotic process, and chemokines
such as monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and interleukin-8 (IL-8) seem to play a …
