Association of peripheral blood neutrophil gelatinase‐associated lipocalin levels with bone marrow neutrophil gelatinase‐associated lipocalin levels and neutrophil count in hematologic malignancy [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, 2019
AbstractBackgroundAlthough neutrophil gelatinase‐associated lipocalin (NGAL) is a biomarker for acute kidney injury, recently, high NGAL levels have been reported in hematologic malignancies. Given the mechanism underlying NGAL synthesis and secretion in neutrophilic series, it is speculated that NGAL levels are higher in bone marrow (BM) than in ...
