Immunohistochemistry (IHC)

(MBS9607471 at 1/100 staining Mouse colon tissue by IHC-P. The sample was formaldehyde fixed and a heat mediated antigen retrieval step in citrate buffer was performed. The sample was then blocked and incubated with the antibody for 1.5 hours at 22 degree C. An HRP conjugated goat anti-rabbit antibody was used as the secondary.)

Description: Lipocalin-2, a member of the lipocalin family of proteins, was originally identified as a gelatinase-associated component of neutrophil secretory granules (1). Lipocalin-2 is involved in innate immunity, iron homeostasis, and apoptosis. Lipocalin-2 limits bacterial growth by binding to bacterial siderophores and sequestering iron (2-4). In mammalian cells, iron-loaded lipocalin-2 binds to its receptor, 24p3R, and is internalized, thereby releasing iron and increasing the intracellular iron concentration (5). Conversely, iron-free lipocalin-2 promotes apoptosis (5). Lipocalin-2 is also expressed in adipose tissue and promotes insulin resistance in cultured mouse adipocytes (6).
Function: Iron-trafficking protein involved in multiple processes such as apoptosis, innate immunity and renal development. Binds iron through association with 2, 5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (2, 5-DHBA), a siderophore that shares structural similarities with bacterial enterobactin, and delivers or removes iron from the cell, depending on the context. Iron-bound form (holo-24p3) is internalized following binding to the SLC22A17 (24p3R) receptor, leading to release of iron and subsequent increase of intracellular iron concentration. In contrast, association of the iron-free form (apo-24p3) with the SLC22A17 (24p3R) receptor is followed by association with an intracellular siderophore, iron chelation and iron transfer to the extracellular medium, thereby reducing intracellular iron concentration. Involved in apoptosis due to interleukin-3 (IL3) deprivation: iron-loaded form increases intracellular iron concentration without promoting apoptosis, while iron-free form decreases intracellular iron levels, inducing expression of the proapoptotic protein BCL2L11/BIM, resulting in apoptosis. Involved in innate immunity, possibly by sequestrating iron, leading to limit bacterial growth.
Subunit Structure: Homodimer; disulfide-linked. Heterodimer; disulfide-linked with MMP9.
Similarity: Belongs to the calycin superfamily. Lipocalin family.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a protein that belongs to the lipocalin family. Members of this family transport small hydrophobic molecules such as lipids, steroid hormones and retinoids. The protein encoded by this gene is a neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin and plays a role in innate immunity by limiting bacterial growth as a result of sequestering iron-containing siderophores. The presence of this protein in blood and urine is an early biomarker of acute kidney injury. This protein is thought to be be involved in multiple cellular processes, including maintenance of skin homeostasis, and suppression of invasiveness and metastasis. Mice lacking this gene are more susceptible to bacterial infection than wild type mice. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]

Product Notes

The LCN2 lcn2 (Catalog #AAA9607471) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The LCN2 Antibody reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's LCN2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), ELISA (EIA). WB: 1:500-1:2000 IHC: 1:50-1:200. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the LCN2 lcn2 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "LCN2, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
