Polyclonal Antibody against Mouse LCN2
Size: 0.1 mg
Introduction
Lipocalin-2 (LCN2), also known as neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), 24p3, or neutrophil lipocalin (NL), is a 25-kDa
secretory glycoprotein. LCN2 has been implicated in a variety of cellular processes including the innate immune response,
differentiation, tumorigenesis, and cell survival. It appears to be upregulated in various inflammation and infection conditions.
Several reports suggest that LCN2 may represent a sensitive biomarker for various renal injuries and is associated with several
types of cancers, including breast cancer, ovarian, colorectal, and pancreatic cancers. Furthermore, a growing body of evidence
suggeststhat serum levels of LCN2 are correlated with obesity, insulin resistance, coronary heart disease and fatty liver disease in
humans.
