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

N-Glycosylation of Lipocalin 2 Is Not Required for Secretion or Exosome Targeting
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2018 Lipocalin 2 (LCN2) is a highly conserved secreted adipokine acting as a serum transport protein for small hydrophobic molecules such as fatty acids and steroids.

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 ...

Substrate prediction of Ixodes ricinus salivary lipocalins differentially expressed during Borrelia afzelii infection. [PDF]
, 2016 Evolution has provided ticks with an arsenal of bioactive saliva molecules that counteract host defense mechanisms. This salivary pharmacopoeia enables blood-feeding while enabling pathogen transmission. High-throughput sequencing of tick salivary glands

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Periodontology 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 ...

Neuro - Open Journal, 2015 Stroke is a leading cause of adult disability in the United States. However, limited number of molecularly targeted therapy exists for stroke. Recent studies have shown that Li-pocalin-2 (LCN2) is an acute phase protein mediating neuroinflammation after ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes.

Peripheral Neutrophil Activation and Extracellular Trap Formation in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.Markers of neutrophil activation are increased in plasma during ALS, and markers of NET formation associate with ALS survival. ABSTRACT Objectives Peripheral neutrophil levels in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) inversely correlate with survival, suggesting a role for neutrophils in disease progression.

Characterization of two novel lipocalins expressed in the Drosophila embryonic nervous system [PDF]
, 2000 We have found two novel lipocalins in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster that are homologous to the grasshopper Lazarillo, a singular lipocalin within this protein family which functions in axon guidance during nervous system development.
