Amyloid beta (Aβ) peptides, in particular Aβ42 and Aβ40, exert neurotoxic effects and their overproduction leads to amyloid deposits in the brain, thus constituting an important biomolecular target for treatments of Alzheimer's disease (AD). We describe the engineering of cognate Anticalins as a novel type of neutralizing protein reagent based on the human lipocalin scaffold. Phage display sele...
L (Lcn2), an innate immune protein, predominantly secreted by neutrophils is upregulated by several logs during inflammatory conditions including autoimmune diseases. However, the defined role of Lcn2 in autoimmune diseases is largely unknown. We investigated the role of Lcn2 in an acute model of IC-mediated inflammation using Lcn2 knock out (Lcn2KO) and their wild type (WT) littermates. In an ...
Iron is the fourth most common element in the Earth's crust and is crucial for life. Over the last few years, our understanding of iron metabolism has dramatically increased due to the discovery of hepcidin, which is produced by hepatocytes and modulated in response to anemia, hypoxia and inflammation. It has been found that anemia upregulates lipocalin 2 (NGAL; neutrophil gelatinase-associated...
Sulfur mustard (SM) is a potent vesicant that has been employed as a chemical weapon in various conflicts during the 20th century. More recently, mustard was used in the Iraq conflict against Iranian troops and civilians. At the present time there are more than 40.000 people suffering from pulmonary lesions special bronchiolitis obliterans (BOs) due to mustard gas. SM increases the endogenous p...
Objective(s): Lupus nephritis (LN) is the main cause of mortality and disability in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients. Therefore, utilizing a reliable and non-invasive method for serial measurements of renal function seems to be necessary. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of urinary lipocalin-2 as a biomarker of renal involvement in SLE patients. Materi...
The lipocalins are secreted proteins that bind small organic molecules. Scn-Ngal (also known as neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin, siderocalin, lipocalin 2) sequesters bacterial iron chelators, called siderophores, and consequently blocks bacterial growth. However, Scn-Ngal is also prominently expressed in aseptic diseases, implying that it binds additional ligands and serves additiona...
Mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) activation may be deleterious to the cardiovascular system, and MR antagonists improve morbidity and mortality of patients with heart failure. However, mineralocorticoid signaling in the heart remains largely unknown. Using a pan-genomic transcriptomic analysis, we identified neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL or lipocalin 2) as a strongly induced g...
Abstract Background Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a of activity and remission. Lipocalin 2 (LCN2), the coding gene for NGAL one most over-expressed genes in colonic mucosa ulcerative colitis (UC) crohn’s (CD). In our research we investigated utility serum level assessing IBD Methods This was single center case control study.It conducted on 60 patients, 50% (30 patients) were remission acti...
