The C-C chemokine receptor type 2 (CCR2 or CD192, UniProt P41597) is a 7-transmembrane spanning class A (rhodopsin-like) G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR). CCR2 has at least four human chemokine ligands, of which CCL2 is the most potent. CCR2 is predominantly expressed on monocytes and regulates (patho-)physiological inflammatory processes. Upregulated CCR2/CCL2 signaling is associated with cancer progression and metastasis, as well as inflammatory diseases.
