Lipocalin 2 Influences Bone and Muscle Phenotype in the <i>MDX</i> Mouse Model of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

Lipocalin 2 (Lcn2) is an adipokine involved in bone and energy metabolism. Its serum levels correlate with bone mechanical unloading and inflammation, two conditions representing hallmarks of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD). Therefore, we investigated the role of Lcn2 in bone loss induced by muscl...
