Neutrophil gelatinase‐associated lipocalin as a potential biomarker for equine asthma [PDF]
Abstract Background Studies in people have found neutrophil gelatinase‐associated lipocalin (NGAL) concentrations are increased in asthma and can be used to distinguish between asthma subtypes. NGAL has not yet been investigated in equine asthma (EA).

Plasma neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin and kidney graft outcome [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Plasma neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (pNGAL) has been investigated extensively in acute kidney injury. This study investigated its pathophysiological significance and utility as marker for graft failure and mortality in stable kidney transplant recipients (KTR).

Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin as a biomarker for lupus nephritis [PDF]
One of the challenges of treating patients with lupus nephritis (LN) is to accurately assess disease activity and predict its outcome. Since renal-biopsy cannot be performed routinely, new surrogate biomarkers are needed.We evaluated neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), to predict renal outcome in LN.

Expression of Neutrophil Gelatinase–Associated Lipocalin in Nasal Polyps [PDF]
To investigate the expression and localization of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), an antimicrobial peptide, in the normal nasal mucosa and human nasal polyps. Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin has been identified as a key element in the innate host defense system.
