MicroRNA-221-3p Regulates Angiopoietin-Like 8 (ANGPTL8) Expression in Adipocytes [PDF]
Abstract Context Angiopoietin-like 8 (ANGPTL8) has been identified as a key regulator of lipid metabolism. Design We addressed the correlation between ANGPTL8 messenger RNA (mRNA) with hallmark insulin-regulated and lipogenic genes in

Impact of oxygen concentration changes on ANGPTL8 expression of human pulmonary artery endothelial cells [PDF]
Objective To explore the impact of change in oxygen concentration on the expression of angiopoietin-like protein 8 (ANGPTL8) by endothelial cells (HPAECs) of human pulmonary artery, and the role and mechanism of ANGPTL8 in pulmonary hypertension (PH ...

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.

Angiopoietin-like protein 8 promotes apoptosis of vascular smooth muscle cells through activating p53 signaling pathway [PDF]
Objective To investigate the mechanism by which angiopoietin-like protein 8 (ANGPTL8) regulates vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMCs) apoptosis. Methods An in vitro abdominal aortic aneurysm cell model was established by stimulating human VSMCs(HUSMCs ...

Circulating Angptl3 and Angptl8 Are Increased in Patients with Hypothyroidism
Purpose. Angiopoietin-like proteins (Angptls) play critical roles in biological processes, primarily in lipid metabolism. The functional state of the thyroid has a profound influence on metabolism in the human body. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate possible changes in serum Angptl3, 4, and 8 levels in hypothyroid patients.
