Previously, we showed that lipocalin2 (LCN2) serum levels increased after liver irradiation and during acute-phase conditions. Here, we evaluate LCN2 expression and serum levels after single-dose lung irradiation with 25 Gy, percutaneously administered to the lung of randomly-paired male Wistar rats. Due to the concave anatomy of the lung recesses, the irradiation field included the upper part ...
BACKGROUND Lipocalin 2, an iron binding protein, is abnormally expressed in some malignant human cancers and may play an important role in tumor metastasis. However, the roles of lipocalin 2 in breast cancer formation and metastasis have not been clearly shown. This study aimed to investigate the roles of lipocalin 2 in breast tumor metastasis. METHODS Lipocalin 2 was overexpressed in the met...
Lipocalins are a diverse family of secreted proteins that are involved in a variety of cellular processes. A member of the lipocalin protein family is lipocalin-2. Lipocalin-2 mRNA and protein expression in the adult brain, under physiological conditions, is thought to be rather low, especially in the hippocampus (Chia et al., 2011). Moreover, lipocalin-2 seems to be expressed, at least in the ...
Cisplatin is one of the most useful chemotherapeutics which performs its cytotoxic effectvia accumulation of platinum resulting in oxidative stress, and destruction of cell DNA. Thiscould probably cause secondary cancers in healthy tissues. Lipocalin2 (Lcn2) is a protein whichits expression is increased in oxidative stresses. Therefore, the present study was performedto evaluate the protective ...
Bacterial infections are common in chronic liver disease, and may precipitate other complications, such as encephalopathy and hepatorenal syndrome. The physiologic functions of lipocalin-2 remain poorly understood. Our aim was to elucidate lipocalin-2 as a useful marker of bacterial infections in children with CLD. A total of 79 children were enrolled in the study; 29 CLD with bacterial infecti...
The preventive effect of Thea sinensis melanin (TSM) against cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity was studied on ICR mice. Animals were given 20mg/kg i.p. of cisplatin, and TSM was injected i.p. in doses 10-40 mg/kg 2h before intoxication. The protective effects were evidenced by a complete inhibition of the cisplatin-induced elevation of serum Blood Urea nitrogen (BUN), prevention of oxidative str...
BACKGROUND/AIMS Mechanical strain of the lung tissue is a physiological process that affects the behavior of lung cells. Since recent evidence also suggests alterations in the expression of certain genes as a consequence of mechanotransduction, our study aimed at the analysis of the gene expression profile in lung epithelial cells subjected to chronic cyclic strain. METHODS Various human lung...
زمینه و هدف: طبق آخرین آمار منتشر شده در سال 2012، سرطان پروستات سومین سرطان شایع در ایران است و نرخ مرگ و میر آن حدود 7 نفر در هر 100000 نفر است. به طور کلی نتایج حاکی از آن است که lipocalin-2 نقش مهمی در پیشرفت سرطان پروستات با تنظیم metalloproteinase 9 و metalloproteinase 2 دارد و به عنوان یک انکوپروتئین موثر در تکثیر و تهاجم سرطان پروستات شناخته شده است. در این مطالعه از توانایی نانو ذرات ط...
NGAL/lipocalin-2 is a siderophore-binding protein that is highly expressed in several cancers. It is suggested to confer a proliferative advantage to cancer cells. Its expression has been correlated with aggressiveness of breast cancer as determined both in patients and in mouse breast cancer models. This was recently confirmed in two mouse models of spontaneous breast cancer in wild-type and l...
BACKGROUND Lipocalin-2, a 25-kDa secreted glycoprotein, is a useful biomarker for early detection of various renal injuries. Because lipocalin-2 is abundantly expressed in adipose tissue and liver, we investigated its relevance to obesity-related pathologies. METHODS We used real-time PCR and in-house immunoassays to quantify the mRNA and serum concentrations of lipocalin-2 in C57BL/KsJ db/db...
