The Glucocorticoid Receptor Regulates the ANGPTL4 Gene in a CTCF-Mediated Chromatin Context in Human Hepatic Cells. [PDF]
Glucocorticoid signaling through the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) plays essential roles in the response to stress and in energy metabolism. This hormonal action is integrated to the transcriptional control of GR-target genes in a cell type-specific and ...

Inactivation of oligomeric LPL by ANGPTL4.
20 nM LPL (A) or 200 nM LPL (B) was incubated in the presence of 1 μM ANGPTL4 and 10 IU/ml heparin (●) or 50 mg/ml BSA (■) or both (▼) in buffer A. Remaining LPL activity was determined by ITC using undiluted pooled human plasma (0.89 mM triglycerides, n

ANGPTL4 is a secreted tumor suppressor that inhibits angiogenesis [PDF]
Tumor suppressors with extracellular function are likely to have advantages as targets for cancer therapy, but few are known. Here, we focused on angiopoietin-like 4 (ANGPTL4), which is a secreted glycoprotein involved in lipoprotein metabolism and angiogenesis, is methylation-silenced in human cancers, but has unclear roles in cancer development and ...

Role of Angiopoietin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4) as a Predictive marker for Diabetic Nephropathy in type 2 Diabetes [PDF]
Background: Angiopoietin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4) is a glycoprotein that regulates LPL activity during fasting and thereby affects triglyceride metabolism.

Angiopoietin-like 4 promotes intracellular degradation of lipoprotein lipase in adipocytes
LPL hydrolyzes triglycerides in triglyceride-rich lipoproteins along the capillaries of heart, skeletal muscle, and adipose tissue. The activity of LPL is repressed by angiopoietin-like 4 (ANGPTL4) but the underlying mechanisms have not been fully ...

Variants inANGPTL4and the Risk of Coronary Artery Disease [PDF]
Stitziel et al. report that a common gain-of-function genetic variant in LPL, which encodes lipoprotein lipase, is associated with a reduction in the risk of coronary artery disease. The authors speculate that therapeutic activation of this pathway might reduce the risk of coronary artery disease.

Suppression of angiopoietin-like 4 reprograms endothelial cell metabolism and inhibits angiogenesis
Angiopoietin-like 4 (ANGPTL4) is known to regulate various cellular and systemic functions. However, its cell-specific role in endothelial cells (ECs) function and metabolic homeostasis remains to be elucidated.

Angiopoietin-Like-4, a Potential Target of Tacrolimus, Predicts Earlier Podocyte Injury in Minimal Change Disease. [PDF]
Podocyte injury plays central roles in proteinuria and kidney dysfunction, therefore, identifying specific biomarker to evaluate earlier podocyte injury is highly desirable.
