Acute but not chronic macrophage recruitment in filarial infections in mice is dependent on C-C chemokine ligand 2

Macrophages play an important role in the formation of granulomas and the clearance of Brugia pahangi infections in mice. However, the factors responsible for the recruitment of these cells to the site of infection are not known. In this study we examined the role of the C-C chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2...
