pubmed:abstractText |
Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) is a newly described neutrophil lipocalin that may bind the proinflammatory bacterial tripeptide N-formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine. In situ hybridization and immunohistochemical studies have shown a strong NGAL expression in colonocytes and neutrophils in ulcerative colitis (UC). Because NGAL is highly protease resistant, it should be ideal for in vivo fecal and dialysate studies. Our aim was to investigate the potential of NGAL as a disease activity marker in UC and to compare it with IL-8 and TNF-alpha.
