A significant lowering of pro-inflammatory, C3 (86.9%) and microglial activation markers, MCP-1 (87.5%) and YKL-40 (72.7%), was evident. PubMed:22791904
The deposition of fibrillar Ab in the AD brain results in the recruitment of microglia to the plaques owing to their expression of CCL2, which acts to attract microglia [82]. PubMed:21718217
The plaque-associated microglia secrete a variety of cytotoxic species including the inflammatory cytokines, INF-g, TNF-a, IL-1b and IL-6 and chemokines, most prominently CCL2 [10-12]. PubMed:21718217

Pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines [e.g., inter leukin 1B (IL1B), CXCL8 (also termed IL8), TNF and chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2 (CCL2, also termed MCP1)], are upregulated in haemolytic disorders such as SCD (Qari et al, 2012). This pro-inflammatory cytokine milieu is crucial in mediating the pro-coagulant effects of vascular endothelial cells and promotes localized inflammation and thrombosis (Qari et al, 2012).
