Anti proliferative and apoptotic effects on pancreatic cancer cell lines indicate new roles for ANGPTL8 (Betatrophin) [PDF]
Despite considerable advances, the treatment of pancreatic cancer (PC) still requires much effort. Unusual regulation of the Wnt and apoptotic signaling pathways is widespread in cancer incidence.

Perspectives on the Activities of ANGPTL8/Betatrophin [PDF]
In this issue of Cell, Gusarova et al. (2014) show that deletion of ANGPTL8 in mice does not affect the compensatory proliferation of pancreatic beta cells in response to insulin resistance induced by a high-fat diet or treatment with the insulin antagonist S961. They also show that overexpression of human ANGPTL8 in mouse liver leads to elevated serum

An Analysis of Circulating Betatrophin Levels in Relation with Type1 and Type2 Diabetes Mellitu Running Title: Betatrophin and Diabetes [PDF]
Betatrophin is a newly identified liver-derived hormone that is associated with glucose homeostasis and lipid metabolism. Previous researches of betatrophin on glucose and lipid metabolism were mainly done under insulin resistant conditions. Only three studies from two centers investigated the association between betatrophin and type1 diabetes mellitus
