Neutrophil gelatinase‐associated lipocalin: pathophysiology and clinical applications [PDF]

Acta Physiologica, 2013
AbstractNeutrophil gelatinase‐associated lipocalin (NGAL), a 25 kDa protein produced by injured nephron epithelia, is one of the most promising new markers of renal epithelial injury. In contrast to serum creatinine and urinary output, which are the measures of kidney function, NGAL is specifically induced in the damaged nephron and then released into ...

Neutrophil gelatinase–associated lipocalin as an immunomodulator in endocrine hypertension

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
In recent studies, primary aldosteronism (PA) has been reported as the most common etiology for secondary hypertension of endocrine origin, accounting for approximately 10% of cases. In PA, excess aldosterone production can lead to deleterious effects at

Mineralocorticoid receptor activation contributes to intestinal fibrosis through neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin in preclinical models [PDF]

Nature Communications
Intestinal fibrosis is a common complication in inflammatory bowel diseases with no specific therapy. Because mineralocorticoid receptor antagonism prevented inflammation and fibrosis in extra-intestinal organs, we aimed to evaluate mineralocorticoid ...
