ANGPTL8: An Important Regulator in Metabolic Disorders
Long-term controversy regarding the role of angiopoietin-like protein 8 (ANGPTL8) in beta-cell proliferation and diabetes progression made it a research spotlight. Recently, the controversy was resolved.

Emerging insights into the roles of ANGPTL8 beyond glucose and lipid metabolism
Angiopoietin-like protein 8 (ANGPTL8) is a secreted protein predominantly expressed in liver and adipose tissue. ANGPTL8 modulates the clearance of triglycerides (TGs) by suppressing the activity of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) within the plasma.

ANGPTL8 in metabolic homeostasis: more friend than foe?
ANGPTL8 is an important cytokine, which is significantly increased in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), obesity and metabolic syndrome. Many studies have shown that ANGPTL8 can be used as a bio-marker of these metabolic disorders related diseases, and the

Silencing of ANGPTL8 Alleviates Insulin Resistance in Trophoblast Cells [PDF]
This study aims to investigate the effect of angiopoietin like 8 (ANGPTL8) on gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and insulin resistance (IR). The GDM model was induced by high fat diet in mice, and IR was observed.

ANGPTL8 is upregulated in subcutaneous adipose tissue at early term after bariatric surgery in patients living with obesity. [PDF]
Bariatric surgery induces early immunological and transcriptomic modulations in subcutaneous adipose tissue, suggesting a transient pro‐inflammatory state and tissue remodeling process in patients living with obesity. ANGPTL8 could play a role in improving metabolic homeostasis at early‐term after bariatric surgery offering new insights into adipose ...

ANGPTL8 regulates glucose metabolism in gestational diabetes mellitus mice, and proteomic analysis reveals the PI3K/Akt pathway plays its role in insulin-resistance HepG2 cells [PDF]
Background Insulin resistance (IR) is a pivotal determinant in the pathophysiological processes underlying gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Angiopoietin-like protein 8 (ANGPTL8) exhibits an ambiguous influence on glucose metabolism in the onset and ...

Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease Exacerbates the Advancement of Renal Fibrosis by Modulating Renal CCR2<sup>+</sup>PIRB<sup>+</sup> Macrophages Through the ANGPTL8/PIRB/ALOX5AP Axis. [PDF]
The ANGPTL8/PIRB/ALOX5AP axis mediates liver‐kidney crosstalk. Hepatocytes secrete ANGPTL8, which binds to CCR2+PIRB+ macrophages in the kidneys, affecting the expression of ALOX5AP and enhancing the activation of these macrophages. Activated cells produce TGF‐β, IL‐6, and IL‐23, driving Th17 activation and promote the formation of myofibroblasts ...

Association between serum ANGPLT8 levels and atherogenic index of plasma in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus [PDF]
AimsAngiopoietin-like protein 8 (ANGPTL8), a secreted adipokine, has been reported to be associated with lipid and glucose metabolism. This study aimed to evaluate the association between circulating levels of ANGPTL8 and atherogenic risk, assessed by ...
