ANGPTL3 also known as angiopoietin-like protein 3 or betatrophin is a protein that functions mechanistically in lipid metabolism. It consists of approximately 70 kDa mass and is expressed mainly in the liver. ANGPTL3 is synthesized and secreted as a glycoprotein and it undergoes post-translational modifications important for its function. The protein exists predominantly in a monomeric form in circulation.
Biological function summary
ANGPTL3 inhibits lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity to regulate plasma lipid levels. It independently interacts with lipids and facilitates the storage of triglycerides making it an important modulator of lipid metabolism. ANGPTL3 does not form a stable complex with other proteins but modulates the presence and stability of LPL on the endothelial surface reducing lipid clearance. ANGPT1 ELISA can measure ANGPTL3 levels as part of routine assays including ANGPTL3 ELISA and beta-trophin ELISA.
Pathways
ANGPTL3 plays a central role in the lipid metabolism and energy homeostasis pathways. In the lipid metabolism pathway ANGPTL3's ability to inhibit LPL links it to other proteins involved in lipid transport and storage such as LDL and HDL particles. Another related protein ANGPTL4 shares similar functions with ANGPTL3 indicating a level of redundancy and regulation within these pathways. ANGPTL3 like ANGPTL4 is a significant player in balancing lipid processing and storage.
ANGPTL3 strongly associates with hyperlipidemia and atherosclerosis. Abnormalities in ANGPTL3 levels can lead to altered lipid profiles raising the risk for cardiovascular diseases. Familial combined hypolipidemia involves mutations in the ANGPTL3 gene leading to drastically lower lipid levels. Disorders such as hypercholesterolemia also demonstrate connections with ANGPTL3 highlighting its role in lipid imbalance. These associations make the anti-ANGPTL3 antibodies important for the study and treatment of such lipid disorders.
