Structural plasticity in the loop region of engineered lipocalins with novel ligand specificities, so-called Anticalins

open access: yesJournal of Structural Biology: X, 2022
Anticalins are generated via combinatorial protein design on the basis of the lipocalin protein scaffold and constitute a novel class of small and robust engineered binding proteins that offer prospects for applications in medical therapy as well as in ...

Peptides from allergenic lipocalins bind to formyl peptide receptor 3 in human dendritic cells to mediate TH2 immunity

open access: yesJournal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2019
Background How TH2-mediated allergic immune responses are induced is still under investigation. Objective In an in vitro system we compared the effect of lipocalin allergens and nonallergenic homologues on human monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DCs) to ...

Comparative diagnostic value of NGAL and multibiomarker models in pediatric sepsis-associated acute kidney injury in Indonesia: a preliminary study [PDF]

open access: yesChildhood Kidney Diseases
Purpose Sepsis is a leading cause of pediatric critical illness and a major contributor to acute kidney injury (AKI). Sepsis-associated AKI (SA-AKI) worsens outcomes, yet current diagnostic criteria based on serum creatinine and urine output lack ...

Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin as a predictor of treatment outcomes in primary glomerulonephritis [PDF]

open access: yesVojnosanitetski Pregled
Background/Aim. Biomarkers for predicting disease course could facilitate treatment selection in primary glomerulonephritis (PGN). Data on the role of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) in PGN are limited.

Structure, Functions, and Physiological Roles of the Lipocalin α1-Microglobulin (A1M)

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
α1-microglobulin (A1M) is found in all vertebrates including humans. A1M was, together with retinol-binding protein and β-lactoglobulin, one of the three original lipocalins when the family first was proposed in 1985.

Differential regulation of vaginal lipocalins (OBP, MUP) during the estrous cycle of the house mouse

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Female house mice produce pheromone-carrying major urinary proteins (MUPs) in a cycling manner, thus reaching the maximum urinary production just before ovulation.

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...
