Roles of angiopoietin-like proteins in regulation of stem cell activity [PDF]
Abstract Various types of stem cells reside in the body and self-renew throughout an organism’s lifetime. Such self-renewal is essential for maintenance of tissue homeostasis and is co-ordinately regulated by stem cell-intrinsic signals and signals from stem cell niche. Angiopoietin is a niche-derived signalling molecule well known to

Serum ANGPTL8 and ANGPTL3 as Predictors of Triglyceride Elevation in Adult Women
Angiopoietin-like proteins ANGPTL3 and ANGPTL8 have been shown to inhibit lipoprotein lipase, and thus regulate triglyceride level in the circulation.

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,

Gene knockdown of angiopoietin-like protein 3 reduces the occurrence and development of thoracic aortic aneurysms [PDF]
Objective To explore the role of angiopoietin-like protein 3 (ANGPTL3) in the development of thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) and its possible mechanism. Methods The TAA patients who underwent open surgical repair in Beijing Anzhen Hospital were selected

Atypical angiopoietin-like protein that regulates ANGPTL3 [PDF]
Angiopoietin-like proteins (ANGPTLs) play major roles in the trafficking and metabolism of lipids. Inactivation of ANGPTL3 , a gene located in an intron of DOCK7 , results in very low levels of LDL-cholesterol (C), HDL-C and triglyceride (TAG).

Angiopoietin-like protein 2 and angiopoietin-like protein 6 levels in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease [PDF]
The aim of the current study was to examine the difference between patients detected with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and healthy subjects in terms of serum angiopoietin-like protein (ANGPTL) 2 and ANGPTL6 levels and to evaluate the correlation between ANGPTL2 and ANGPTL6 levels and liver enzyme levels, fasting glucose, lipid levels, and ...

Background Hypertension is a risk factor for both cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and type 2 diabetes (T2D). Angiopoietin-like proteins (ANGPTLs), mainly ANGPTL3, ANGPTL4 and ANGPTL8, are associated with increased plasma lipid content due to their role in

Increased expression level of ANGPTL8 in white adipose tissue under acute and chronic cold treatment
Background Angiopoietin-like proteins (ANGPTL), primarily 3, 4, and 8, play a major role in maintaining energy homeostasis by regulating triglyceride metabolism. This study evaluated the level of ANGPTL3, 4, and 8 in the liver, brown adipose tissue (BAT),

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