<p>DNAs encoding human chemokine receptors, MCP-1R and MCP-1RB, and processes for expressing them are disclosed. The receptor proteins, which are the products of alternately spliced versions of the MCP-1R gene, may be used in an assay to identify antagonists of MCP-1. The antagonists are therapeutically useful in the treatment of atherosclerosis and other diseases characterized by monocytic infiltrates.</p> |
