Serum levels of angiopoietin-like protein 4 in polycystic ovary syndrome women with normal body mass index [PDF]
Introduction: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a complex endocrine disorder in women, and approximately 75% of women affected by PCOS are overweight. Angiopoietin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4) is a potent inhibitor of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) enzyme.

Vaccinia virus protein A46R targets multiple Toll-like-interleukin-1 receptor adaptors and contributes to virulence [PDF]
Viral immune evasion strategies target key aspects of the host antiviral response. Recently, it has been recognized that Toll-like receptors (TLRs) have a role in innate defense against viruses.

Decreased fat storage by Lactobacillus paracasei is associated with increased levels of angiopoietin-like 4 protein (ANGPTL4). [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Intervention strategies for obesity are global issues that require immediate attention. One approach is to exploit the growing consensus that beneficial gut microbiota could be of use in intervention regimes.

Phosphorylation of mitotic kinesin-like protein 2 by polo-like kinase 1 is required for cytokinesis [PDF]
We have investigated the function of mitotic kinesin-like protein (MKlp) 2, a kinesin localized to the central spindle, and demonstrate that its depletion results in a failure of cleavage furrow ingression and cytokinesis, and disrupts localization of ...

Serum angiopoietin-1 and -2 levels discriminate cerebral malaria from uncomplicated malaria and predict clinical outcome in African children. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Limited tools exist to identify which individuals infected with Plasmodium falciparum are at risk of developing serious complications such as cerebral malaria (CM). The objective of this study was to assess serum biomarkers that differentiate
