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.

Lipocalin-2 controls the expression of SDF-1 and the number of responsive cells in bone
Cytokine, 2010 Lipocalin-2 (LCN2) is a member of the lipocalin family, small secreted proteins functioning as modulators of many different physiological processes including cell differentiation, proliferation and apoptosis. LCN2 expression is also up-regulated in several pathological conditions, including inflammation and cancer.

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 ...

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.
