Angiopoietin-like protein 8 in early pregnancy improves the prediction of gestational diabetes [PDF]

open access: yesDiabetologia, 2017
Screening high-risk individuals for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in early pregnancy conventionally relies on established maternal risk factors; however, the sensitivity and specificity of these factors are not satisfactory. The present study aimed to determine whether the concentration of angiopoietin-like protein 8 (ANGPTL8), either alone or ...

Apolipoprotein F is reduced in humans with steatosis and controls plasma triglyceride‐rich lipoprotein metabolism

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
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,

Pentraxin-3, Angiopoietin-Like Protein-3, Angiopoietin-Like Protein-4 and Angiopoietin-Like Protein-8 Levels in Morbid Obese Children [PDF]

open access: yesMed One, 2017
A low-grade inflammatory state accompanies obesity and metabolic syndrome (MetS), which are risk factors for cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in children’s future lives. The aim of this study is to investigate possible associations of pentraxin 3 (PTX3), a promising new marker for CVDs, with angiopoietin-like proteins (ANGPTL) in morbid obese (MO ...

ANGPTL8: An Important Regulator in Metabolic Disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2018
Long-term controversy regarding the role of angiopoietin-like protein 8 (ANGPTL8) in beta-cell proliferation and diabetes progression made it a research spotlight. Recently, the controversy was resolved.

Decoding the role of angiopoietin-like protein 4/8 complex–mediated plasmin generation in the regulation of LPL activity

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2023
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 expression and association with extracellular matrix metabolism and inflammation during intervertebral disc degeneration. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Cell Mol Med, 2019
AbstractIntervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is considered the primary culprit for low back pain. Although the underlying mechanisms remain unknown, hyperactive catabolism of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and inflammation are suggested to play critical roles in IDD progression.

Downregulated angiopoietin-like protein 8 production at calving related to changes in lipid metabolism in dairy cows. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Anim Sci, 2018
Acute physiological adaptation of lipid metabolism during the postpartum transition period of cows facilitates peripheral metabolic regulation. Hepatokines, which are hormones secreted from hepatocytes, are presumed to play a critical role in systemic metabolic regulation.

Angiopoietin-like protein 8, molecular cloning and regulating lipid accumulation in goat intramuscular preadipocytes

open access: yesAnimal Biotechnology, 2021
This study aimed to clone the full-length open reading frame (ORF) of goat ANGPTL8 gene sequence, reveal its molecular and expression characteristics, and explore its effect on the differentiation of goat intramuscular preadipocytes. The full-length ORF sequence of goat ANGPTL8 gene was cloned by RT-PCR technology, and bioinformatics analysis was ...

Circulating angiopoietin-like proteins in metabolic-associated fatty liver disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesLipids in Health and Disease, 2021
Background Angiopoietin-like proteins (ANGPTLs) are closely related to insulin resistance and lipid metabolism, and may be a key in metabolic syndrome. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) (newly named metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD)

Emerging insights into the roles of ANGPTL8 beyond glucose and lipid metabolism

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2023
Angiopoietin-like protein 8 (ANGPTL8) is a secreted protein predominantly expressed in liver and adipose tissue. ANGPTL8 modulates the clearance of triglycerides (TGs) by suppressing the activity of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) within the plasma.
