The angiopoietin-like protein 4, apolipoprotein C3, and lipoprotein lipase axis is disrupted in patients with rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]
Background Modulators of triglyceride metabolism include lipoprotein lipase (LPL), angiopoietin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4), and apolipoprotein C-3 (ApoC3).

A Review of free fatty acid-induced cell signaling, angiopoietin-like protein 4, and skeletal muscle differentiation [PDF]
Postnatal skeletal muscle differentiation from quiescent satellite cells is a highly regulated process, although our understanding of the contribution of nutritional factors in myogenesis is limited. Free fatty acids (FFAs) are known to cause detrimental

Kidney angiopoietin-like protein 4 regulates fibrotic responses in diabetic kidney disease [PDF]
The angiopoietin-like (ANGPTL) proteins are now recognized as critical regulators of the harmful changes seen in diabetic kidney disease. Notably, a hyposialylated pro-proteinuric form of ANGPTL4 has been identified as a crucial contributor to fibrosis ...

Angiopoietin-Like Protein 4 May Be an Interplay Between Serum Uric Acid and Triglyceride-Rich Lipoprotein Cholesterol [PDF]
BackgroundAlthough the available evidence has indicated a link between elevated serum uric acid (SUA) level and dyslipidemia, the potential contribution of SUA on lipid profiles remains unclear.

Serum Angiopoietin‐Like Protein 4 as a Biomarker for Acute Ischemic Stroke Severity and Dynamic Changes [PDF]
Background Angiopoietin‐like protein 4 (ANGPTL4) is critical for vascular integrity and reducing inflammation in ischemic and hypoxic brain injuries. However, limited studies have evaluated ANGPTL4's role in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) assessment, and ...

Decoding the role of angiopoietin-like protein 4/8 complex–mediated plasmin generation in the regulation of LPL activity [PDF]
After feeding, adipose tissue lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity should be maximized, therefore the potent LPL-inhibitory activity of angiopoietin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4) must be blocked by ANGPTL8 through formation of ANGPTL4/8 complexes.

Overexpression of Angiopoietin-Like Protein 4 Protects Against Atherosclerosis Development [PDF]
Objective— Macrophage foam cells play a crucial role in several pathologies including multiple sclerosis, glomerulosclerosis, and atherosclerosis. Angiopoietin-like protein 4 (Angptl4) was previously shown to inhibit chyle-induced foam cell formation in mesenteric lymph nodes.

Skeletal Muscle Angiopoietin-Like Protein 4 and Glucose Metabolism in Older Adults after Exercise and Weight Loss [PDF]
Angiopoietin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4) is an adipokine that plays an important role in energy homoeostasis and lipid and lipoprotein metabolism. This study was designed to determine the effect of an exercise plus weight loss intervention on ANGPTL4 ...
