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 ...

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.

A Short Review on ANGPTL-8 as an Important Regulator in Diabetes [PDF]
ANGPTL8, a new hormone, is regarded as a novel target for type-2 diabetes and associated metabolic disorder. Nutritional state and hormonal factors are involved in the regulation of ANGPTL-8 expression.
