Lipocalin 2 (Lcn2) expression is induced during iron-deficiency anemia. (a) Iron concentrations in the liver and spleen of control mice and mice with iron-deficiency anemia (Fe-def). (b) Lcn2 and (c) hepcidin mRNA levels in the liver of control and iron-deficient anemic mice determined by real-time PCR. The results are presented as means±SEM, n=6 per group. Student’s t test: *P<0.05; **P<0.001. (d) Lcn2 in serum detected by Western blotting.
