MCP2 and CCL7 are two monocyte chemotactic proteins produced by human MG63 osteosarcoma cells. Both MCP2 and CCL7 are members of the CC family of chemokines and share 62% and 71% amino acid sequence identity, respectively, with MCP1. CCL7 also shares 58% amino acid identity with MCP2. CCL7 cDNA encodes a 99 amino acid residue precursor protein from which the N-terminal 23 amino acid residues are cleaved to generate the 76 amino acid residue mature CCL7. Mature CCL7 contains a potential N-linked and several possible O-linked glycosylation sites. Similarly to other CC chemokines, all three MCP proteins are monocyte chemoattractants. In addition, the three MCPs can chemoattract activated NK cells as well as CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes. All three cytokines have also been shown to attract eosinophils and induce histamine secretion from basophils.

CCL8, also known as Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein 2 (MCP2), is an inflammatory CC chemokine that attracts monocytes, eosinophils and basophils. It is produced by many cell types and signals through interactions with CCR1, CCR2, CCR3 and CCR5.
