Role of Angiopoietin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4) as a Predictive marker for Diabetic Nephropathy in type 2 Diabetes [PDF]
Background: Angiopoietin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4) is a glycoprotein that regulates LPL activity during fasting and thereby affects triglyceride metabolism.

The role of angiopoietin-like protein 4 in phenylephrine-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. [PDF]
Abstract Angiopoietin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4) is a multifunctional secreted protein that can be induced by fasting, hypoxia and glucocorticoids. ANGPTL4 has been associated with a variety of diseases; however, the role of ANGPTL4 in cardiac hypertrophy remains poorly understood. In our study, we aimed to explore the effect of ANGPTL4 on

Fasting-induced adipose factor/angiopoietin-like protein 4 as an adipokine
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 protein 4 (Angptl4), a member of the family of angiopoietins and angiopoietin-like protein. Angptl4

Regulation of angiopoietin-like protein 4 production during and after exercise. [PDF]
Angiopoietin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4) may regulate lipoprotein lipase-dependent plasma clearance of triacylglycerol from skeletal muscle during exercise. The aim of this study was to examine the importance of muscle in regulating ANGPTL4 in response to exercise.

Oligomerization and Regulated Proteolytic Processing of Angiopoietin-like Protein 4 [PDF]
Angiopoietin-like protein 4 (Angptl4) is a recently identified circulating protein expressed primarily in adipose tissue and liver. Also known as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-gamma angiopoietin-related, fasting induced adipose factor, and hepatic fibrinogen/angiopoietin-related protein, recombinant Angptl4 causes increase of plasma

Background: The role of Lactobacillus casei on human health is well documented. However, little is known about their protein effects on food digestion. Therefore, in the present study, we aimed to investigate the efficacy of three proteins of L. casei on

Angiopoietin-like 4 Interacts with Matrix Proteins to Modulate Wound Healing* [PDF]
A dynamic cell-matrix interaction is crucial for a rapid cellular response to changes in the environment. Appropriate cell behavior in response to the changing wound environment is required for efficient wound closure. However, the way in which wound keratinocytes modify the wound environment to coordinate with such cellular responses remains less ...

Comparison of angiopoietin-like protein 3 and 4 reveals structural and mechanistic similarities [PDF]
Elevated plasma triglycerides are a risk factor for coronary artery disease, which is the leading cause of death worldwide. Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) reduces triglycerides in the blood by hydrolyzing them from triglyceride-rich lipoproteins to release free fatty acids.

Hepatic APOF transcript levels correlate inversely with plasma TG and hepatic steatosis in humans. ApoF expression in mice promotes VLDL‐TG production and lipoprotein remnant clearance in mice. Abstract Background NAFLD affects nearly 25% of the global population. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the most common cause of death among patients with NAFLD,
