Description

Definition and Biological Role of CCR1 Antibody

CCR1 antibodies are immunologic reagents designed to bind specifically to CCR1, a chemokine receptor expressed on neutrophils, monocytes, lymphocytes, and eosinophils . They are used to:

  • Block receptor activity (e.g., inhibiting chemokine binding)

  • Detect CCR1 expression in tissues or cells via flow cytometry, ELISA, or immunohistochemistry

  • Study leukocyte trafficking in inflammatory and autoimmune diseases

Key ligands for CCR1 include CCL3 (MIP-1α), CCL5 (RANTES), and CCL15, which drive immune cell recruitment to sites of inflammation or cancer .

Cancer

  • Multiple Myeloma: High CCR1 expression in bone marrow plasma cells correlates with poor prognosis (HR=2.5, P<0.05) . CCR1 blockade via CCX721 reduced osteolysis and tumor burden in murine models by 60% .

  • Breast Cancer: CCR1 is overexpressed in invasive ductal carcinoma (mean intensity: 5.78 vs. 1.67 in normal tissue; P<0.001) . Silencing CCR1 inhibited MDA-MB-231 cell invasion in 3D models .

Autoimmune and Inflammatory Disorders

  • Rheumatoid Arthritis: The CCR1 inhibitor CCX354 demonstrated clinical efficacy in Phase II trials, reducing swollen joint counts by 30% (P<0.05) .

  • Behçet’s Disease: Anti-CCL3 antibody therapy improved symptoms in mouse models by upregulating CCR1+ cells .

Mechanistic Insights from Preclinical Models

  • CCR1 Knockout Mice: Exhibit defects in neutrophil trafficking and reduced inflammation in models of lupus nephritis and asthma .

  • Chemotaxis Inhibition: CCX721 blocked CCL15-induced THP-1 cell migration at 1.1 nM IC₅₀ in human serum .

Challenges and Future Directions

While CCR1 blockade shows promise, earlier efforts targeting related receptors (CCR2/CCR5) failed due to redundant chemokine pathways . Current strategies focus on:

  • Dual targeting of CCR1 and CXCR4 in hematologic cancers

  • Biomarker-driven patient stratification (e.g., CCR1 expression levels)

Q&A

Here’s a structured collection of FAQs tailored to academic research scenarios for CCR1 antibodies, integrating scientific depth and methodological guidance:

Advanced Research Questions

How to reconcile conflicting data on CCR1’s role in autoimmune vs. cancer models?

  • Analysis framework:

    • Model comparison:

      • In HSV-induced Behçet’s disease (BD), CCR1+ cell frequency correlates with symptom severity (r=0.82, p<0.01) .

      • In MC38 colorectal tumors, CCR1-KO reduces growth by 63% vs. WT (p<0.001) .

    • Mechanistic divergence:

      • Autoimmunity: CCR1 mediates Th1/Th2 imbalance .

      • Cancer: CCR1+ myeloid cells secrete MMP9/VEGF promoting metastasis .

What strategies enhance CCR1 blockade efficacy in therapeutic studies?

  • Experimental design:

    • Combination therapy: Anti-CCR1 (KM5908) + anti-PD1 reduces MC38 tumor volume by 78% vs. monotherapy (41%) .

    • Timing: Administer antibodies during myeloid cell infiltration (day 3-7 post-implantation).

    • Dosage table:

ModelAntibodyEffective DoseOutcome

MC38 tumorKM590815 mg/kg63% growth inhibition

How to resolve discrepancies in CCR1 ligand binding assays?

  • Critical factors:

    • Calcium flux vs. chemotaxis: CCL3 shows EC50=1.2 nM in calcium assays vs. 3.8 nM in migration .

    • Species specificity: Mouse CCR1 has 18% divergence in extracellular domains vs. human .

    • Validation checklist:

      • Confirm cross-reactivity using species-specific primers.

      • Include cyclosporin A (CCR1 inhibitor) as a control .

Data Contradiction Resolution

7. When CCR1 staining varies between flow cytometry and IHC:

  • Root cause analysis:

    • Fixation artifacts: Methanol fixation masks CCR1 epitopes; use PFA-based methods .

    • Conformational states: Surface vs. internalized CCR1 requires differential permeabilization .

8. If CCR1 blockade shows opposite effects in different cancer models:

  • Hypothesis testing:

    • Microenvironment profiling: CMT93 metastases show 3× higher CCR1+MDSCs than primary tumors .

    • Ligand screen: Test CCL3/CCL5/CCL7 levels via Luminex.
