Description

Application

For research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
Please refer to the attached General ELISA KIT Procedure (sandwich, competitive & Indirect ELISA)

Human Lipocalin-2/NGAL ELISA Kit has been used in the electrochemical immunoassay.[1] It has also been used to determine the neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) levels in the urine.[2]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Lipocalin-2 (LCN2) has been implicated in a variety of processes including cell differentiation, tumorigenesis and apoptosis.[3] Polymorphisms in the expression of LCN2 are associated with many cancers such as breast, colorectal, pancreatic, ovarian, gastric, thyroid, ovarian, bladder and kidney cancers.[4]

General description

Lipocalin-2 (LCN2), a secreted glycoprotein, is an adipokine.[4][5] It is expressed in various cells like respiratory cells, intestinal epithelial cells, endothelial cells, renal tubular cells and cardiomyocytes.[3] The gene LCN2 is located on human chromosome 9q34.[6] The human lipocalin-2 ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) kit is an in vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative measurement of human lipocalin-2 in serum, plasma, cell culture supernatants and urine.
