Insulin Resistance, Inflammation, and Obesity: Role of Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-1 (orCCL2) in the Regulation of Metabolism

Figure 4

CCL2 is ubiquitously expressed and may be found in multiple cell types. It is easily detected via immunohistochemistry in tissues related to metabolism, including the liver (a), where it is also located in the periphery of lipid droplets (b), brown (c) and white (d) adipose tissues, pancreas (e), spleen (f), muscle (g) and aorta (h).
