The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 0.8 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 1.7 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00058 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.19 SJR: 0.409 SNIP: 0.19 CiteScore™:: 2.6 H-Index: 85

ABSTRACT

Lipocalin-2 (LCN2), a secretory protein, regulates diverse cellular processes such as cell death/survival, cell migration/invasion, cell differentiation, iron delivery, inflammation, insulin resistance, and tissue regeneration. Recently, we reported that LCN2 is secreted by brain astrocytes under inflammatory conditions and that it promotes apoptosis, morphological changes, and migration in astrocytes both in vitro and in vivo. Activated astrocytes release LCN2 not only to induce the morphological transformation associated with reactive astrocytosis, but also to promote their own death. Under inflammatory conditions, activated astrocytes also show functional dichotomy similar to the M1/M2 phenotypes of microglia and macrophages. LCN2 is thought to be a chemokine inducer and an autocrine promoter of the classical proinflammatory activation of astrocytes. This article summarizes the current knowledge regarding the role of astrocyte-derived LCN2 as a proinflammatory mediator in the central nervous system and discusses LCN2's role in neuroinflammatory disorders.
