Lipocalin 1/LCN1 Polyclonal Antibody
Product Specifications
Background
Lipocalin-1 is a secretory protein that is highly expressed in fluids covering epithelial surfaces such as tears and respiratory secretions. This major lipid-binding protein in tears is also called tear lipocalin (TL) and von Ebner?s gland protein (VEG), as it is also a major secretion of these lingual salivary glands. In addition to lacrimal glands and lingual glands, Lipocalin-1 is secreted by nasal mucosal glands, secretory glands of the tracheobronchial tract, sweat glands, mammary glands, adrenal gland, prostate, thymus, testis and corticotrophs of the pituitary gland. Specifically, Lipocalin-1 functions to stabilize the lipid film of human tear fluid by removing harmful lipids from the human corneal surface and delivering them to the aqueous phase of tears. Lipocalin-1 may also function as a transporter of hydrophobic molecules such as bitter substances on the tongue.
