Diagnostic and prognostic performance of urinary neutrophil gelatinase‐associated lipocalin in patients with cirrhosis and acute kidney injury

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Diagnostic and prognostic ability of urinary NGAL in patients with cirrhosis and AKI. Abstract Background and Aims Acute kidney injury (AKI) commonly occurs in patients with decompensated cirrhosis. Urinary neutrophil gelatinase–associated lipocalin (uNGAL) could help discriminate between different etiologies of AKI.

Cerebrospinal fluid levels of sortilin-1, lipocalin-2, autotaxin, decorin and interleukin-33 in patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension

Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2022
Background Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is characterized by increased cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pressure of unknown cause. It has been suggested that the inflammatory process plays a role in the pathophysiology of the disease.

Mammalian derived lipocalin and secretoglobin respiratory allergens strongly bind ligands with potentially immune modulating properties

Frontiers in Allergy, 2022
Allergens from furry animals frequently cause sensitization and respiratory allergic diseases. Most relevant mammalian respiratory allergens belong either to the protein family of lipocalins or secretoglobins.

Interaction of uteroglobin with lipocalin-1 receptor suppresses cancer cell motility and invasion [PDF]

Gene, 2006
Cellular migration and invasion are critical for important biological processes including cancer metastasis. We previously reported that uteroglobin (UG), a multifunctional secreted protein, binds to several cell types inhibiting migration and invasion [G.C. Kundu, A.K. Z. Zhang Mandal, G. Mantile-Selvaggi, A.B.

Human CD4+ T cell responses to the dog major allergen Can f 1 and its human homologue tear lipocalin resemble each other. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Lipocalin allergens form a notable group of proteins, as they contain most of the significant respiratory allergens from mammals. The basis for the allergenic capacity of allergens in the lipocalin family, that is, the development of T-helper type 2 ...

The homologous lipocalins Can f 1 and Lcn-1 induce different immune responses [PDF]

Clinical and Translational Allergy, 2014
Background Why and when the immune system provokes TH2 mediated allergic immune responses is still not well understood. Dendritic cells are one of the master regulators during the induction of allergic airway inflammation providing stimuli for TH2 cell differentiation.

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 ...

Component-Resolved Diagnosis Based on a Recombinant Variant of Mus m 1 Lipocalin Allergen

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023
Exposure to the Mus m 1 aeroallergen is a significant risk factor for laboratory animal allergy. This allergen, primarily expressed in mouse urine where it is characterized by a marked and dynamic polymorphism, is also present in epithelium and dander.

Structural and ligand binding analysis of the pet allergens Can f 1 and Fel d 7

Frontiers in Allergy, 2023
IntroductionPet lipocalins are respiratory allergens with a central hydrophobic ligand-binding cavity called a calyx. Molecules carried in the calyx by allergens are suggested to influence allergenicity, but little is known about the native ligands ...
