Description : Lipocalin-2 (LCN2) is also known as oncogene 24p3 or neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), MSFI, The binding of lipocalin-2 to bacterial siderophores is important in the innate immune response to bacterial infection. Upon encountering invading bacteria the toll-like receptors on immune cells stimulate the synthesis and secretion of lipocalin-2. Secreted lipocalin-2 then limits bacterial growth by sequestering iron-containing siderophores. Lipocalin-2 also functions as a growth factor. LCN2 is strongly upregulated during inflammation and is upregulated by interleukin 1 (but not TNF alpha) in humans. There are indications that some forms of acne could be caused due to the gene not being transcribed, and that Isotretinoin corrects this. NFAT3 (NFATc4)NFAT by blocking the expression of LCN2 inhibits breast carcinoma cell motility. Recent studies have revealed that NGAL plays an important role in the physiopathology of chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) mediated by BCR-ABL.

Ask a question
What diseases are associated with mutations or abnormal expression of the LCN2 protein? 06/19/2022

Mutations or abnormal expression of the LCN2 protein may be associated with a variety of diseases. For example, in hereditary kidney disease, mutations in the uNGAL gene can lead to kidney damage. In addition, in inflammatory diseases, tumors, and other diseases, the expression level of LCN2 protein may also change.

What diseases are LCN2 protein expression levels associated with? 11/15/2020

Studies have shown that the expression level of LCN2 protein is associated with a variety of diseases. For example, in kidney disease, expression levels of the LCN2 protein can be elevated and can be used as one of the biomarkers to assess the extent of kidney damage. In addition, in inflammatory diseases, tumors, and other diseases, the expression level of LCN2 protein can also change.

What is the interaction between the LCN2 protein and other proteins or molecules? 07/22/2020

The interaction between the LCN2 protein and other proteins or molecules is complex. For example, it can participate in lipid metabolism processes by interacting with lipid molecules. In addition, it can interact with other signal transduction molecules to participate in the signal transduction process.

How can the expression level of LCN2 protein be used for disease diagnosis? 04/03/2020

Kidney function can be assessed by measuring the level of uNGAL in urine, and to help diagnose kidney disease, etc. In addition, abnormal levels of LCN2 protein expression can also be used as an indicator to assess the risk and prognosis of other diseases.

How is the activity of LCN2 protein regulated? 02/16/2020

The activity of the LCN2 protein is regulated by a variety of factors. First, its expression level is regulated by gene expression. Secondly, its activity is also regulated by a variety of small molecule compounds, hormones and other substances. In addition, the LCN2 protein can also regulate its activity by interacting with other proteins.

How does the LCN2 protein relate to other biomarkers? 06/06/2019

LCN2 protein has some association with other biomarkers. For example, in kidney disease, expression levels of uNGAL can be used alongside traditional biomarkers such as creatinine to assess kidney function and degree of impairment. In addition, in diseases such as tumors, expression levels of the LCN2 protein may also change and be associated with other biomarkers.
