Comment on list classification: Updated rating of CCL2 from Red to Green. 3 publications supporting an association between CCL2 SNP(s) and viral infections including HIV, Japanese encephalitis and SARs. Additional evidence that CCL2 levels are raised after viral infection.Created: 14 Apr 2020, 2:13 p.m. | Last Modified: 14 Apr 2020, 2:13 p.m.

PMID:29057937 (Chowdhury and Khan, 2017) report that SNPs of CCL2 (rs1024611G) and its receptor CCR2 (rs1799864A) significantly associated with Japanese encephalitis (JE) which may serve as possible genetic predisposing factor. JE is one of the major viral encephalitis in Asia and parts of Western Pacific.Created: 14 Apr 2020, 2:11 p.m. | Last Modified: 14 Apr 2020, 2:11 p.m.

PMID:27260136 (Kim et al., 2016) report that CCL2 ablation highly increased susceptibility to Japanese encephalitis, indicating that CCL2 plays an essential role in conferring protection against JE caused by JE virus (JEV) infection. They also note a surprising opposite effect for ablation of the CCR2 (the corresponding receptor).Created: 6 Apr 2020, 10:41 a.m. | Last Modified: 6 Apr 2020, 10:41 a.m.

PMID:24788844 (Han et al., 2014) studied 36 Chines patients and report that the CCL2-2510G allele is associated with susceptibility to EV71 encephalitis in Chinese patients.Created: 6 Apr 2020, 10:33 a.m. | Last Modified: 6 Apr 2020, 10:33 a.m.

PMID:16916890 (Ansari et al.) report increased CCL2 levels in HIV-1 patients, and suggest inhibition of CCL2 production could provide a therapeutic intervention in HIV infection.Created: 6 Apr 2020, 10:24 a.m. | Last Modified: 6 Apr 2020, 10:24 a.m.

PMID:26687605 (Covino et al., 2016) report that CCL2 is involve in the pathogenesis of infections with either bacterial or viral pathogens, such as human rhinovirus (HRV), respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), simian human immunodeficiency virus (SHIV), and HIV. CCL2 is unique among the chemokines in that mostly enhancing effects on viral replication and pathogenesis have been reported. Either HIV infection itself or exposure to viral products can induce the expression of CCL2 (and its receptor CCR2).Created: 6 Apr 2020, 10:23 a.m. | Last Modified: 6 Apr 2020, 10:23 a.m.

PMID: 25818534 reports that the CCL2 G-2518A and MBL codon 54 variants have a significantly cumulative effect on increased risk of SARS-CoV infection.
