Distribution of human chemokine (C-X3-C) receptor 1 ( CX3CR1 ) gene polymorphisms and haplotypes of the CC chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5) promoter in Chinese people, and the effects of CCR5 haplotypes on CCR5 expression

By comparison, CCR2 ( + ) Ly-6C ( hi ) monocytes unexpectedly required CX3CR1 in addition to CCR2 and CCR5 to accumulate within plaques

(Alzheimer Disease...) :
However, CCR2 deficiency stimulated the expression of TGF-ß1, TGF-ß receptors, and CX(3)CR1 transcripts in plaque associated microglia, a pattern that is characteristic of an antiinflammatory subset of myeloid cells
