Increased Level of Angiopoietin Like Proteins 4 and 8 in People With Sleep Apnea [PDF]
Objective: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a sleep disorder caused by the complete or partial obstruction of the upper airways. The worldwide prevalence of OSA is increasing due to its close association with obesity epidemic and multiple health ...

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

Postprandial exercise regulates tissue-specific triglyceride uptake through angiopoietin-like proteins [PDF]
Fuel substrate switching between carbohydrates and fat is essential for maintaining metabolic homeostasis. During aerobic exercise, the predominant energy source gradually shifts from carbohydrates to fat.

Angiopoietin-Like Proteins 2 and 3 in Children and Adolescents with Obesity and Their Relationship with Hypertension and Metabolic Syndrome [PDF]
Background. Angiopoietin-like protein 2 (ANGPTL2) is one of the adipocyte-derived inflammatory factors which connects obesity to insulin resistance. ANGPTL3 has a direct role in regulation of lipid metabolism.

Regulation of lipid metabolism via angiopoietin-like proteins
Regulation of mammalian energy metabolism is an intricate process involving numerous hormones, transcription factors and signal transduction cascades. Much of the regulation occurs via secreted factors that relay information from one organ to another.

Angiopoietin-Like Proteins and Lipid Metabolism
Lipoprotein lipase, hepatic lipase, and endothelial lipase play a pivotal role in the clearance and remodelling of plasma lipoproteins. Their activity is governed at the level of gene transcription as well as via changes in enzyme activity by specific activator or inhibitor proteins.

Regulation of lipid metabolism by angiopoietin-like proteins
The angiopoietin-like proteins (ANGPTLs) 3, 4 and 8 have emerged as key regulators of plasma lipid metabolism by serving as potent inhibitors of the enzyme lipoprotein lipase (LPL). In this review, we provide an integrated picture of the role of ANGPTL3, ANGPTL4 and ANGPTL8 in lipid metabolism by focusing on their impact on LPL activity and plasma ...

Differential regulation and properties of angiopoietin-like proteins 3 and 4 [PDF]
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 ...
