Localization of NUCB2/Nesfatin‐3/Nesfatin‐1 in Normal and Inflamed Human and Mouse Lungs, and Human Neutrophils

Nesfatin‐1 regulates hunger and fat storage and is produced in the hypothalamus of mammals. Nucleobindin2 (NUCB2)/nesfatin‐1 protein expression in human plasma positively correlates with expression of pro‐inflammatory cytokines in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) suggesting its potential role in lung inflammation. However, we still don’t precisely know the expression of NUCB2/nesfatin‐1 in lungs and neutrophils. In this...
