Research progress on the roles of angiopoietin-like protein 8 in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases [PDF]
Angiopoietin-like protein 8(ANGPTL8) secreted by liver and adipose tissue, is a glycoprotein exerting paramount effects on facilitation of vascular remodeling and regulation of inflammatory response; ANGPTL8 is involved in the initiation and progression ...

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.

Angiopoietin-like protein 8 orchestrates macrophage glycogen metabolism and polarization via the JNK signaling pathway in cytokine storm syndrome [PDF]
Cytokine storm syndrome (CSS) is associated with severe damage and high mortality in acute diseases. Over-activation of M1 macrophages, accompanied with excessive pro-inflammatory cytokine secretion, drives cytokine storms, while promoting M2 macrophage ...

Effect of Ileal Transposition (IT) on Angiopoietin-Like Protein-8 (ANGPTL8) and Pentraxin (PTX3) Plasma Level in Sprague-Dawley Rats Fed High-Fat Diet (HFD) [PDF]
Background. Metabolic surgery procedures are designed not only for sustained weight loss but also for achieving positive metabolic changes, including improved glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity, along with an increase in energy expenditure.

We previously demonstrated that angiopoietin-like protein 8 (ANGPTL8) forms ANGPTL3/8 and ANGPTL4/8 complexes that increase with feeding to direct fatty acids (FA) toward adipose tissue through differential modulation of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity.

Association of Serum Angiopoietin-Like Protein 8 With Albuminuria in Type 2 Diabetic Patients: Results From the GDMD Study in China [PDF]
Background: Hyperglycemia, insulin resistance and hypertriglyceridesmia are risk factors for albuminuria in type 2 diabetes. Angiopoietin-like Protein 8(ANGPTL8) is a newly identified liver-derived hormone related to these risk factors.
