Dysregulation of angiopoietins is associated with placental malaria and low birth weight. [PDF]
Placental malaria (PM) is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes including low birth weight (LBW). However, the precise mechanisms by which PM induces LBW are poorly defined.

Angiopoietins modulate endothelial adaptation, glomerular and podocyte hypertrophy after uninephrectomy. [PDF]
Glomerular capillary remodeling is an essential process in the development of glomerular hypertrophy. Angiopoietins, which are important regulators in angiogenesis, plays a role in the development of glomerulus during embryogenesis.

Cervical cancer cell–derived angiopoietins promote tumor progression
Metastatic or recurrent cervical cancer has limited treatment options and a high rate of mortality. Although anti-vascular endothelial growth factor drugs have shown great promise as a therapeutic target for treatment of advanced cervical cancer, drug ...

Effect of Vitamin E on Serum Levels of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor and Angiopoietin-1 in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Pilot Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial [PDF]
Background: Angiogenesis disturbances are common in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). VitaminE has antiangiogenic properties. Data on the effects of vitamin E on angiogenesis in PCOS is limited, so the currentstudy was conducted to evaluate ...

Baseline Ang-2 Serum Levels as a Predictive Factor for Survival in NSCLC and SCLC
Angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) has been implicated in the development of several types of cancer, including lung malignancy. In the present study, we examined the impact of Ang-2 serum concentration on the development, dissemination, and 5-year overall survival ...

Roles of miR-640 and Zinc Finger Protein 91 (ZFP91) in Angiopoietin-1-Induced In Vitro Angiogenesis
Angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1) is a ligand of Tie-2 receptors that promotes angiogenesis. It has been established that regulatory loops exist between angiogenic growth factors and distinct pro or anti-angiogenic miRNAs, but the nature and the roles of Ang-1 ...

Angiopoietins and diabetic nephropathy [PDF]
Diabetic nephropathy is the main cause of end-stage renal failure in the Western world. In diabetes, metabolic and haemodynamic perturbations disrupt the integrity of the glomerular filtration barrier, leading to ultrastructural alterations of the ...

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,
