Angiopoietin-like protein and lipid metabolism

, 2009
Lipoprotein lipase, hepatic lipase, and endothelial lipase play a pivotal role in the clearance and remodelling of plasma lipoproteins. Their activity is governed at the level of gene transcription as well as via changes in enzyme activity by specific ...

Basophils in Immunity: Activation Pathways, Roles in Allergy and AllergoOncology and Application of the Basophil Activation Test

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Basophils, the least abundant leukocytes, are increasingly recognised as potent immunomodulators. Upon activation, they rapidly release preformed granule‐associated mediators including histamine and lipid mediators such as LTC4, while cytokine production occurs over a longer timescale, contributing to downstream immune responses.

Fasting-induced adipose factor/angiopoietin-like protein 4 as an adipokine

, 2011
The adipose tissue serves as a major endocrine organ by secreting a large number of metabolically and/or immunologically active factors. One of the proteins secreted by adipose and other tissues is fasting-induced adipose factor (FIAF)/ angiopoietin-like

Serum angiopoietin-like 4 protein levels and expression in adipose tissue are inversely correlated with obesity in monozygotic twins

Journal of Lipid Research, 2011
Animal studies have suggested that angiopoietin-like 4 (Angptl4) regulates adiposity through central and peripheral mechanisms. The aim of this study was to investigate whether serum concentration and adipose tissue expression of Angptl4 are associated ...

Der Effekt von Entzündungsmediatoren auf die Produktion von Angiopoietin-like 4 in parodontalen Fibroblasten unter hypoxischen Bedingungen.

, 2019
Einleitung: Parodontale Erkrankungen stellen in der Zahnheilkunde ein für Zahnverlust verantwortliches Problem dar. Es ist bekannt, dass das Zusammenspiel vieler Faktoren für die Entstehung dieser oft schwer therapierbaren Krankheit die Schuld trägt.

The nitty‐gritty of vascular permeability in cancer: targeting blood endothelium to control metastases

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Blood vascular permeability is a hallmark of cancer and acts as an active driver of metastatic dissemination. Metastasis accounts for the vast majority of cancer deaths, yet most work has focussed on tumour‐intrinsic traits and angiogenesis, while the specific contribution of endothelial barrier regulation to intravasation and extravasation remains ...

The role of Vitamin D in malaria

Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2015
An abnormal calcium-parathyroid hormone (PTH)-vitamin D axis has been reported in patients with malaria infection. A role for vitamin D in malaria has been suggested by many studies. Genetic studies have identified numerous factors that link vitamin D to

Gut microbiota as a novel therapeutic target for eating disorders and obesity

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract highlights the bidirectional interaction between the gut microbiota and central homeostatic and hedonic mechanisms regulating food intake, which contributes to overweight and obesity. It also illustrates emerging microbiota‐based biomarkers and therapeutic strategies (including prebiotics, probiotics, postbiotics, synbiotics and ...
