No effect of NGAL/lipocalin-2 on aggressiveness of cancer in the MMTV-PyMT/FVB/N mouse model for breast cancer.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
NGAL/lipocalin-2 is a siderophore-binding protein that is highly expressed in several cancers. It is suggested to confer a proliferative advantage to cancer cells. Its expression has been correlated with aggressiveness of breast cancer as determined both

The effects of obesity and polycystic ovary syndrome on serum lipocalin-2 levels: a cross-sectional study

open access: yesReproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2010
Background Lipocalin-2 is a novel adipokine that appears to play a role in the development of insulin resistance. Serum lipocalin-2 levels are elevated in obese patients. Obesity and insulin resistance are cardinal characteristics of the polycystic ovary

Tear Lipocalin: structure and Function [PDF]

open access: yesThe Ocular Surface, 2011
Lipocalins are a family of diverse low molecular weight proteins that act extracellularly. They use multiple recognition properties that include 1) ligand binding to small hydrophobic molecules, 2) macromolecular complexation with other soluble macromolecules, and 3) binding to specific cell surface receptors to deliver cargo. Tear lipocalin (TLC) is a

Epididymis-specific lipocalin promoters

open access: yesAsian Journal of Andrology, 2007
Our goal is to decipher which DNA sequences are required for tissue-specific expression of epididymal genes. At least 6 epididymis-specific lipocalin genes are known. These are differently regulated and regionalized in the epididymis. Lipocalin 5 (Lcn5 or mE-RABP) and Lipocalin 8 (Lcn8 or mEP17) are homologous genes belonging to the epididymis-specific

Lipocalin comes callin’ on the hippocampus [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2011
Several decades of clinical and basic research have characterized the complex effects of stress on the brain and body (1–4). Stress, commonly defined as real or implied threat to homeostasis, initially triggers a protective response that helps the organism to survive and adapt to the stressful experience. This short-term response to stress that enables

Comparison of Serum Neutrophil Gelatinase-associated Lipocalin (NGAL) with Serum Creatinine in Prediction of Kidney Recovery after Renal Transplantation

open access: yesInternational Journal of Organ Transplantation Medicine, 2012
Background: Because of some insult to kidney during transplantation, assessment of kidney function after the procedure is essential. It would be ideal to find a marker better than creatinine to early predict the acute kidney injury.Objective: To compare ...
