Many transcription factors, including the estrogen and androgen receptors, regulate NGAL expression by both positive and negative mechanisms [67][68][69][70][71][72][73][74][75][76][77]. 11 NGAL is an important molecule in many different types of cancer including: breast [9,10,77], colorectal (CRC) [78,79], endometrial [80], esophageal [7,81], gastric cancer [6], liver [82][83][84], lung [85][86][87] ovarian [88], pancreatic [89,90], prostate [76,91], renal [8,92] and thyroid cancer [68].…”
