Background:

Monocyte chemotactic and activating factor (MCAF) is also called monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) and chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2 (CCL2).  It is primarily secreted by monocytes, macrophages and dendritic cells. This cytokine displayed chemotactic activity for monocytes, T-cells, and basophils, but not for neutrophils or eosinophils. MCAF causes the degranulation of basophils and mast cells, and augments the activity of monocyte and macrophage. MCAF plays an important role in inflammation, angiogenesis, auto-immune diseases, renal diseases, chronic infection and granuloma formation.

Applications:

ELISA: The HRP conjugated antibody can be used for quantitative detection of human MCP-1 in sandwich ELISA in combination with capture antibody S14 (Cat. No.: MO-C40021B).
