The adipokine lipocalin-2 in the context of the osteoarthritic osteochondral junction
Obesity and osteoarthritis (OA) form a vicious circle in which obesity contributes to cartilage destruction in OA, and OA-associated sedentary behaviour promotes weight gain. Lipocalin-2 (LCN2), a novel adipokine with catabolic activities in OA joints, contributes to the obesity and OA pathologies and is associated with other OA risk factors. LCN2 is highly induced in osteoblasts in the absence...
متن کاملEx Vivo and In Vivo Regulation of Lipocalin-2, a Novel Adipokine, by Insulin
OBJECTIVE Lipocalin-2, a novel adipokine, has been shown to be elevated in obese, insulin-resistant, and diabetic subjects. We therefore sought to study the ex vivo and in vivo effects of insulin on lipocalin-2 levels in humans. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We investigated the in vivo effects of insulin (hyperinsulinemia) on circulating lipocalin-2 levels by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay v...

متن کاملDeamidated Lipocalin‐2 Induces Endothelial Dysfunction and Hypertension in Dietary Obese Mice
BACKGROUND Lipocalin-2 is a proinflammatory adipokine upregulated in obese humans and animals. A pathogenic role of lipocalin-2 in hypertension has been suggested. Mice lacking lipocalin-2 are protected from dietary obesity-induced cardiovascular dysfunctions. Administration of lipocalin-2 causes abnormal vasodilator responses in mice on a high-fat diet (HFD). METHODS AND RESULTS Wild-type an...
