Role of Lipocalin-2 in Amyloid-Beta Oligomer-Induced Mouse Model of Alzheimer’s Disease
Lipocalin-2 (LCN2) is an inflammatory protein with diverse functions in the brain. Although many studies have investigated the mechanism of LCN2 in brain injuries, the effect of LCN2 on amyloid-toxicity-related memory deficits in a mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) has been less studied. We in...
