Increased expression level of ANGPTL8 in white adipose tissue under acute and chronic cold treatment
Lipids in Health and Disease, 2021 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),

Lipids in Health and Disease, 2018 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

Journal of Lipid Research, 2023 Angiopoietin-like proteins, ANGPTL3, ANGPTL4, and ANGPTL8, are involved in regulating plasma lipids. In vitro and animal-based studies point to LPL and endothelial lipase (EL, LIPG) as key targets of ANGPTLs.

Structure and function of bacterial dynamin-like proteins [PDF]
, 2012 Membrane dynamics are essential for numerous cellular processes in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. In eukaryotic cells, membrane fusion and fission are often catalyzed by large GTPases of the dynamin protein family. These proteins couple GTP hydrolysis

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 ...

Proteolysis of insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs) by calpain [PDF]
, 2005 Calpains are non-lysosomal, Ca2+-dependent cysteine proteases, which are ubiquitously distributed across cell types and vertebrate species. The rules that govern calpain specificity have not yet been determined.

Angiopoietin-like protein 4 and cardiovascular function in COPD [PDF]
BMJ Open Respiratory Research, 2016 Introduction The coexistence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) is frequent and might be inter-related through inflammation-related processes reflected by specific markers.

Designer lipid-like peptides [PDF]
, 2011 A crucial bottleneck in membrane protein studies, particularly G-protein coupled receptors, is the notorious difficulty of finding an optimal detergent that can solubilize them and maintain their stability and function. Here we report rapid production of
