Monoclonal Antibody against Human LCN2 (Clone 2C3)
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 [1]. LCN2 has been implicated in a variety of cellular processes including the innate immune response, differentiation, tumorigenesis, and cell survival [2-3]. 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 [4] and is associated with several types of cancers, including breast cancer [5], ovarian, colorectal, and pancreatic cancers [6-7]. Furthermore, a growing body of evidence suggests that serum levels of LCN2 are correlated with obesity, insulin resistance, hyperglycemia, coronary heart disease and fatty liver disease in humans [8-11].

Purification
