Plasma lipocalin-2/NGAL is stable over 12 weeks and is not modulated by exercise or dieting

Abstract Amongst other immune cells, neutrophils play a key role in systemic inflammation leading to cardiovascular disease and can release inflammatory factors, including lipocalin-2 (LCN2). LCN2 drives cardiac hypertrophy and plays a role in maladaptive remodelling of the heart and has been associ...
