Enhanced ANGPTL2 expression in adipose tissues and its association with insulin resistance in obese women

Abstract Angiopoietin-like protein 2 has been proposed to be a key mediator linking obesity and insulin resistance. However, no detailed study of ANGPTL2 expression in human adipose tissues has yet been reported. To investigate the pattern and regulation of ANGPTL2 expression in human adipose tissue...
