Lipocalin-1 Expression as a Prognosticator Marker of Survival in Breast Cancer Patients [PDF]
Breast Care, 2019 <b><i>Purpose:</i></b> LCN1 (lipocalin-1), a gene that encodes tear lipocalin (or von Ebner’s gland protein), is mainly expressed in secretory glands and tissues, such as the lachrymal and lingual gland, and nasal, mammary, and tracheobronchial mucosae.

Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin induces the expression of heme oxygenase-1 and superoxide dismutase 1, 2 [PDF]
Cell Stress and Chaperones, 2010 Lipocalin-2 (Lcn2, NGAL) is a member of the lipocalin super family with diverse function such as the induction of apoptosis, the suppression of bacterial growth, and modulation of inflammatory response. Much interest has recently been focused on the physiological/pathological role of the lipocalin-2 that is considered to be a novel protective factor ...

Kidney injury molecule-1 and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin as prognostic markers in idiopathic membranous nephropathy [PDF]
Annals of Clinical Biochemistry: International Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 2015 Background Urinary excretion of alpha-1-microglobulin and beta-2-microglobulin reflects tubular damage and predicts outcome in patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy with reasonable accuracy. Urinary kidney injury molecule-1 and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin are novel biomarkers of tubular ...

International Journal of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, 2014 Despite a number of studies on biomarkers in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), only a few disease-related markers have been identified, yet we still have no satisfactory markers specific to innate immune system and neutrophil activation, which is essential in airway inflammation in COPD.

Diverse DTPA‐chelated lanthanides with relevance for nuclear medicine bound to an engineered lipocalin reveal conserved ligand geometry [PDF]
Acta Crystallographica Section F, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 301-311, September 2026.Structural and binding studies of the engineered lipocalin CL31d towards the chelate complexes of 11 different lanthanide and main‐group metal(III) ions, whose radioisotopes are useful for nuclear medicine, with a functionalized DTPA revealed a surprisingly broad tolerance towards varying ionic radii, thus enabling flexible radionuclide‐targeting ...

Effects of Acute Low‐ and Moderate‐Dose Alcohol on Chronic Disease‐Related Biomarkers in Healthy Light and Heavy Drinkers [PDF]
Alcohol, Clinical and Experimental Research, Volume 50, Issue 9, September 2026.This randomized, placebo‐controlled trial compared the effects of low‐ and moderate‐dose alcohol on biomarkers related to chronic disease in light and heavy drinkers. We identified novel acute alcohol effects as well as between‐group differences suggestive of pathophysiological processes by which alcohol use may promote chronic disease.

Antisense Down-regulation of Lipocalin-interacting Membrane Receptor Expression Inhibits Cellular Internalization of Lipocalin-1 in Human NT2 Cells [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2003 There is increasing experimental evidence demonstrating that many lipocalins bind to specific cell surface receptors. However, whereas the binding of lipocalins to their lipophilic ligands has now been characterized in much detail, there is a lack of knowledge about the nature of lipocalin receptors, the physiological role of receptor binding, and the ...
