Background
This gene encodes a glycosylated, secreted protein containing a C-terminal fibrinogen domain. The encoded protein is induced by peroxisome proliferation activators and functions as a serum hormone that regulates glucose homeostasis, lipid metabolism, and insulin sensitivity. This protein can also act as an apoptosis survival factor for vascular endothelial cells and can prevent metastasis by inhibiting vascular growth and tumor cell invasion. The C-terminal domain may be proteolytically-cleaved from the full-length secreted protein. Decreased expression of this gene has been associated with type 2 diabetes. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. This gene was previously referred to as ANGPTL2 but has been renamed ANGPTL4. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013],
Function
caution:The sequence shown here is derived from an Ensembl automatic analysis pipeline and should be considered as preliminary data.,disease:Found to be highly expressed in the early stages of collagen-induced arthritis (CIA).,disease:Produced in ischemic tissues in conditions such as critical leg ischemia. In tumors, ANGPTL4 could be produced in the hypoxic areas surrounding necrotic regions. High levels could be produced in tumor cells of conventional renal cell carcinoma. This molecule therefore seems to be a marker of conventional renal cell carcinoma.,disease:Serum levels of ANGPTL4 are significantly lower in patients with diabetes type 2 than those in healthy subjects, suggesting that decreased ANGPTL4 could be a causative factor of this disease.,function:Protein with hypoxia-induced expression in endothelial cells. May act as a regulator of angiogenesis and modulate tumorgenesis.
