Biochem/physiol Actions

Angiopoietin like 4 (ANGPTL4) possesses a characteristic large fibrinogen/angiopoietin like domain. It inhibits lipoprotein lipase and thus increases plasma triglyceride levels. The protein regulates the uptake of free fatty acids in fasting and fed conditions. ANGPTL4 is also involved in homeostasis, insulin sensitivity and apoptosis of vascular endothelial cells. It has been reported to have a role in atherosclerosis and may modulate inflammatory responses.
