Functional characterization of Angptl4 protein
, 2009 Background: Elevated plasma triglycerides (TG) are increasingly recognized as a risk factor for atherosclerosis. A new adipocytokine was discovered by several groups which is referred to as Angptl4 (Angiopoietin-like protein 4).

Angiopoietin-like protein 2 is a potential biomarker for gastric cancer
Molecular Medicine Reports, 2014 Globally, gastric cancer is one of the most common types of cancer and is the second leading cause of cancer‑induced mortality. Early detection of gastric cancer is able to contribute to a reduction of its mortality. For early detection, more specific and sensitive biomarkers than the classic biomarkers, including carcinoembryonic antigen, carbohydrate

Angiopoietin-like protein 2 as a potential biomarker for colorectal cancer
Molecular and Clinical Oncology, 2015 Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common malignancy worldwide. Disease progression leads to its spread to other organs, such as the liver, and is associated with higher mortality rates. Early CRC detection is therefore crucial for maximizing the chances of complete cure.

Molecular cloning and characterization of a novel angiopoietin family protein, angiopoietin-3
, 1999 Using homology-based PCR, we have isolated cDNA encoding a novel member (491 amino acids) of the angiopoietin (Ang) family from human adult heart cDNA and have designated it angiopoietin-3 (Ang3).

Modulation of Phosducin-Like Protein 3 (PhLP3) Levels Promotes Cytoskeletal Remodelling in a MAPK and RhoA-Dependent Manner [PDF]
, 2011 Background Phosducin-like protein 3 (PhLP3) forms a ternary complex with the ATP-dependent molecular chaperone CCT and its folding client tubulin. In vitro studies suggest PhLP3 plays an inhibitory role in ?-tubulin folding while conversely in vivo ...

ANGPTL7 regulates the expansion and repopulation of human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells
Haematologica, 2015 Successful expansion of hematopoietic stem cells would benefit the use of hematopoietic stem cell transplants in the clinic. Several angiopoietin-like proteins, including angiopoietin-like 7, can support the activity of hematopoietic stem cells. However,
