Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor beta/delta (PPARbeta/delta) but not PPARalpha serves as a plasma free fatty acid sensor in liver

, 2009
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha) is an important transcription factor in liver that can be activated physiologically by fasting or pharmacologically by using high-affinity synthetic agonists.

The role of Angiopoietin-like protein 4 in macrophage activation

, 2020
Angiopoietin-like protein 4 (Angptl4) is a matricellular protein that associates with extracellular matrix proteins, mediating complex cell-cell, and cell-matrix interactions.

Small ubiquitin-like modifier protein SUMO enables plants to control growth independently of the phytohormone gibberellin [PDF]

, 2014
Plants survive adverse conditions by modulating their growth in response to a changing environment. Gibberellins (GAs) play a key role in these adaptive responses by stimulating the degradation of growth-repressing DELLA proteins.

Roles of angiopoietin-like proteins in regulation of stem cell activity [PDF]

The Journal of Biochemistry, 2019
Abstract Various types of stem cells reside in the body and self-renew throughout an organism’s lifetime. Such self-renewal is essential for maintenance of tissue homeostasis and is co-ordinately regulated by stem cell-intrinsic signals and signals from stem cell niche. Angiopoietin is a niche-derived signalling molecule well known to

Neuropeptide Y-Positive Neurons in the Dorsomedial Hypothalamus Are Involved in the Anorexic Effect of Angptl8

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2018
Angiopoietin-like protein 8 (Angptl8), a recently identified member of the angiopoietin-like protein family (ANGPTLs), is a 22-kDa peptide synthesized in the liver.

New molecular mediators in tumor angiogenesis

, 2007
Angiogenesis is essential for tumor growth and progression. It has been demonstrated that tumor growth beyond a size 1 to 2 mm3 requires the induction of new vessels.

Calcium binding activity of the epidermal growth factor-like domains of the apicomplexan microneme protein EtMIC4

, 2005
Microneme proteins are secreted from apicomplexan parasites during invasion of host cells and they play crucial roles in parasite-host cell adhesion.

Differential regulation and properties of angiopoietin-like proteins 3 and 4 [PDF]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2005
Angiopoietin-like protein 3 and 4 (Angptl3 and Angptl4) are two members of the angiopoietin-like family of proteins. These two closely related proteins have been reported to similarly affect lipid metabolism through their capacity to inhibit lipoprotein lipase.

Angiopoietin-like protein 4 is a potent hyperlipidemia-inducing factor in mice and inhibitor of lipoprotein lipase

Journal of Lipid Research, 2002
Studies with KK/San, obese and diabetic model mice having a unique hypotriglyceridemia phenotype, revealed that angiopoietin-like protein 3 (ANGPTL3) regulates lipid metabolism in mice.

Estradiol, Progesterone, and Transforming Growth Factor α Regulate Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Protein-3 (IGFBP3) Expression in Mouse Endometrial Cells [PDF]

, 2009
Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) Is Involved in the proliferation of mouse and rat endometrial cells in a paracrine or autocrine manner. Insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP3) modulates actions of IGFs directly or indirectly.
