Association between CCR2 and CCL2 expression and NET stimulation in adult-onset Still's disease.

ABSTRACT: Adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) is a systemic inflammatory disease characterized by the activation of monocyte-derived cells and the release of neutrophil extracellular traps (NET). C-C motif ligand (CCL) 2 is a chemoattractant that interacts with the C-C motif chemokine receptor (CCR) 2, resulting in monocyte recruitment and activation. CCL2 and CCR2 were measured with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) at the serum level, and using immunohistochemical staining at the skin and lymph node tissues levels. THP-1 cell lysates were analyzed using western blot and ELISA after NET stimulation in patients with AOSD. Serum CCL2 level was higher in patients with AOSD than in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and healthy controls (HCs). In patients with AOSD, the percentage of CCL2-positi
