Other Information

**Key Characteristics** ANGPT2 is a member of the angiopoietin family, which consists of four proteins: Ang-1, Ang-2, Ang-3, and Ang-4. Ang-2 is the only member of this family that is not a ligand for the Tie2 receptor, but rather an antagonist that modulates the activity of Ang-1. ANGPT2 is primarily secreted by endothelial cells and has a dual role in angiogenesis: it can either inhibit or promote the formation of new blood vessels, depending on the context. **Pathways and Functions** ANGPT2 interacts with various signaling pathways that regulate angiogenesis, including: 1. **Tie2 signaling pathway**: ANGPT2 binds to the Tie2 receptor, inhibiting the activation of downstream signaling pathways that promote angiogenesis. 2. **Negative regulation of angiogenesis**: ANGPT2 inhibits the formation of new blood vessels by suppressing the expression of pro-angiogenic genes and promoting the expression of anti-angiogenic genes. 3. **Positive regulation of angiogenesis**: In contrast, ANGPT2 can also promote angiogenesis by stimulating the expression of pro-angiogenic genes and inhibiting the expression of anti-angiogenic genes. 4. **Cell surface interactions**: ANGPT2 interacts with cell surface receptors, such as the Tie2 receptor, to regulate cell adhesion, migration, and proliferation. **Clinical Significance** ANGPT2 has been implicated in various diseases and conditions, including: 1. **Cancer**: ANGPT2 has been shown to promote angiogenesis in various types of cancer, including breast, lung, and colon cancer. 2. **Cardiovascular disease**: ANGPT2 has been linked to the development of cardiovascular disease, including atherosclerosis and cardiac hypertrophy. 3. **Neurological disorders**: ANGPT2 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's disease and multiple sclerosis. 4. **Pregnancy and parturition**: ANGPT2 plays a role in the regulation of angiogenesis during pregnancy and parturition. In conclusion, ANGPT2 is a multifunctional protein that plays a crucial role in the regulation of angiogenesis and has implications in various physiological and pathological processes. Further research is needed to fully understand the mechanisms by which ANGPT2 regulates angiogenesis and its role in human disease. **Significantly expressed cells** * Vascular lymphangioblast * Lens epithelial cell * Cerebral cortex endothelial cell * Renal interstitial pericyte * Skeletal muscle fiber * OFF retinal ganglion cell * Mural cell * Prostate gland microvascular endothelial cell * Trophoblast giant cell * Contractile cell **Proteins** * ANGP2_HUMAN (Angiopoietin-2) Note: The information provided is based on the given description and may not be comprehensive or up-to-date.
