Mesangial cell production and release of MCP-1 is stimulated by cytokines and growth factors [80,81,82], while dexamethasone [83] or PGE [84] reduces the glomerular MCP-1 expression, suggesting that endogenously formed PGs can modulate the formation of MCP-1 and influence the clinical outcome of experimental glomerulonephritis. Here, CCL2 is linked to glomerulonephritis.
