Concerns on the Genetic or Therapeutic Antagonism of ANGPTL3
We read with great interest the paper by Stitziel et al. [(1)][1], wherein they found that ANGPTL3 deficiency is associated with protection from coronary artery disease (CAD) and that circulating ANGPTL3 concentrations are higher in subjects presenting with myocardial infarction (MI) than ...

Inactivation of ANGPTL3 reduces hepatic VLDL-triglyceride secretion1[S]
Humans and mice lacking angiopoietin-like protein 3 (ANGPTL3) have pan-hypolipidemia. ANGPTL3 inhibits two intravascular lipases, LPL and endothelial lipase, and the low plasma TG and HDL-cholesterol levels in ANGPTL3 deficiency reflect increased ...

ANGPTL8 requires ANGPTL3 to inhibit lipoprotein lipase and plasma triglyceride clearance[S]
Angiopoietin-like (ANGPTL)3 and ANGPTL8 are secreted proteins and inhibitors of LPL-mediated plasma triglyceride (TG) clearance. It is unclear how these two ANGPTL proteins interact to regulate LPL activity.

Characterization of Three Kindred with Familial Combined Hypolipidemia Due to Loss of Function Mutations of ANGPTL3. [PDF]
Background—Angiopoietin-like protein 3 (ANGPTL3) affects lipid metabolism by inhibiting the activity of lipoprotein and endothelial lipases. Angptl3 knockout mice have marked hypolipidemia, and heterozygous carriers of ANGPLT3, loss-of-function ...

Circulating ANGPTL3 and ANGPTL4 levels predict coronary artery atherosclerosis severity
Background We investigated the role of ANGPTL3 and ANGPTL4 in atherosclerosis development and determined whether plasma concentrations of ANGPTL3 and ANGPTL4 are related to the degree of coronary stenosis. Methods A total of 305 consecutive patients with
