mRNA Expression of Ovine Angiopoietin-like Protein 4 Gene in Adipose Tissues [PDF]

open access: yesAsian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2016
Angiopoietin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4) is involved in a variety of functions, including lipoprotein metabolism and angiogenesis. To reveal the role of ANGPTL4 in fat metabolism of sheep, ovine ANGPTL4 mRNA expression was analyzed in seven adipose tissues ...

Oligomerization state-dependent hyperlipidemic effect of angiopoietin-like protein 4

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2004
Angiopoietin-like protein 4 (Angptl4) is the second member of the angiopoietin-like family of proteins previously shown to increase plasma triglyceride (TG) levels in vivo.

Differential regulation and properties of angiopoietin-like proteins 3 and 4

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2005
Angiopoietin-like protein 3 and 4 (Angptl3 and Angptl4) are two members of the angiopoietin-like family of proteins. These two closely related proteins have been reported to similarly affect lipid metabolism through their capacity to inhibit lipoprotein ...

Angiopoietin-like 4 (Angptl4) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Angiopoietin-like 4 (Angptl4) is a secreted protein modulating triacylglycerol homeostasis. Its transcription is induced by glucocorticoids, which act to elevate circulating Angptl4 levels during fasting.

Overexpression of Angiopoietin-Like Protein 4 Protects Against Atherosclerosis Development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
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 ...

ANGPTL4 deficiency in haematopoietic cells promotes monocyte expansion and atherosclerosis progression

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Angiopoietin-like 4 protein (ANGPTL4) is a regulator of lipoprotein metabolism whose role in atherosclerosis has been controversial. Here the authors show that ANGPTL4 deficiency in haematopoietic cells increases atherogenesis by promoting myeloid ...

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor beta/delta (PPARbeta/delta) but not PPARalpha serves as a plasma free fatty acid sensor in liver [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha) is an important transcription factor in liver that can be activated physiologically by fasting or pharmacologically by using high-affinity synthetic agonists.

Characterization of ANGPTL4 function in macrophages and adipocytes using Angptl4-knockout and Angptl4-hypomorphic mice[S]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2019
Angiopoietin-like protein (ANGPTL)4 regulates plasma lipids, making it an attractive target for correcting dyslipidemia. However, ANGPTL4 inactivation in mice fed a high fat diet causes chylous ascites, an acute-phase response, and mesenteric ...

Angiopoietin-like 4 mediates PPAR delta effect on lipoprotein lipase-dependent fatty acid uptake but not on beta-oxidation in myotubes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) delta is an important regulator of fatty acid (FA) metabolism. Angiopoietin-like 4 (Angptl4), a multifunctional protein, is one of the major targets of PPAR delta in skeletal muscle cells.

Silencing of Angiopoietin‐Like Protein 4 (Angptl4) Decreases Inflammation, Extracellular Matrix Degradation, and Apoptosis in Osteoarthritis via the Sirtuin 1/NF‐κB Pathway

open access: yesOxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, 2022
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a frequently observed condition in aged people. OA cartilage is characterized by chondrocyte apoptosis, chondrocyte inflammation, and hyperactive catabolism of extracellular matrix. However, the specific molecular mechanisms remain unclear.
