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 ...

Role of the angiopoietin-like protein family in the progression of NAFLD
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most frequent cause of chronic liver disease, with a range of conditions including non-alcoholic fatty liver, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

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.

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).

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,

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 ...

Early vessel destabilization mediated by Angiopoietin-2 and subsequent vessel maturation via Angiopoietin-1 induce functional neovasculature after ischemia. [PDF]
We assessed whether Angiopoietin-2 (Ang2), a Tie2 ligand and partial antagonist of Angiopoietin-1 (Ang1), is required for early vessel destabilization during postischemic angiogenesis, when combined with vascular growth factors.
