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

Med 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

Frontiers 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

Journal 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.

Transforming growth factor-beta targets Formin-like 2 for Angiopoietin-like 4 secretion during the epithelial mesenchymal transition [PDF]

, 2019
Epithelial to Mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a highly dynamic process that plays a crucial role in tumor progression and metastasis. While remodelling of the actin cytoskeleton is a hallmark of EMT, the responsible actin regulating factors are less well

Visualizing the regulatory role of Angiopoietin-like protein 8 (ANGPTL8) in glucose and lipid metabolic pathways.

Genomics, 2017
ANGPTL8 (Angiopoietin-like protein 8) is a newly identified hormone emerging as a novel drug target for treatment of diabetes mellitus and dyslipidemia due to its unique metabolic nature. With increasing number of studies targeting the regulation of ANGPTL8, integration of their findings becomes indispensable. This study has been conducted with the aim

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

Lipids 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

Frontiers 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.

New molecular mediators in tumor angiogenesis [PDF]

, 2007
Angiogenesis is essential for tumor growth and progression. It has been demonstrated that tumor growth beyond a size 1 to 2 mm3 requires the induction of new vessels.
