ANGPTL3 (mouse/rat) Dual ELISA Kit

Seven proteins containing an N-terminal coiled-coil domain and a C-terminal fibrinogen-like domain, both characteristics of angiopoietins, have been identified and therefore designated angiopoietin-like proteins 1-7 (ANGPTL 1-7). ANGPTL3 and ANGPTL6 (Angiopoietin-related growth factor, AGF), among others, function to regulate angiogenesis and also appear to directly regulate lipid, glucose, and energy metabolism. ANGPTL3 plasma levels are increased in a mouse model of diabetes mellitus.
