Overview of Gene Research
Ccr1, the CC chemokine receptor 1, is a G protein-coupled receptor predominantly expressed in various leukocytes. It binds to CC chemokines like CCL5 (RANTES) and CCL3 (MIP-1α), and is crucial in regulating inflammatory responses, monocyte extravasation, and transportation in inflammatory conditions [2,3]. It is involved in the "chemokine network", which is vital for both normal bone microenvironment and the tumor microenvironment of multiple myeloma [1].
In multiple myeloma models, in vivo studies of Ccr1 antagonists have shown they can reduce tumor burden, minimize osteolytic bone damage, deter metastasis, and limit disease progression, suggesting Ccr1 plays a role in the pathogenesis of multiple myeloma [1]. In non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) mouse models, Ccr1-deficient mice (Ccr1-/-) fed a high-cholesterol and high-fat or methionine/choline-deficient diet showed inhibition of NASH-associated hepatic steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis. This indicates Ccr1 promotes NASH progression, likely through regulating macrophage activation via mTORC1 signaling [4].
In conclusion, Ccr1 is essential in regulating inflammatory responses and monocyte movement. Model-based research, especially using Ccr1-deficient mouse models, has revealed its significance in diseases like multiple myeloma and NASH. Understanding Ccr1's functions provides potential therapeutic targets for these diseases.
