Excerpt from the site
We found a significant induction of CCL2 and CCL3 expression in macrophages together with an increased expression of CCR1, the receptor for both chemokines, in patients with critical COVID-19. Because binding of CCL2 or CCL3 to CCR1, CCR2 or CCR5 can induce monocyte recruitment into the lung parenchyma with subsequent differentiation into inflammatory macrophages and consecutive recruitment and activation of additional immune cells and epithelial damage, CCR1, CCR2 and CCR5 might represent promising anti-inflammatory targets in COVID-19
