Background Information

Lipocalin-2 (LCN-2) is a adipocytokine also referred to as neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL). Lipocalin-2 is a circulatory protein responsible for the transportation of small and hydrophobic molecules to target organs. Lipocalin-2 is used as a biomarker for acute and chronic renal injury. It is present in a large variety of cells including neutrophil, hepatocytes, lung, bone marrow, adipose tissue, macrophages, thymus, non-neoplastic breast duct, prostate, and renal cells. Different functions have been associated with Lipocalin-2, including antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and protection against cell and tissue stress (PMID:34463264).
