Angptl1 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Angiopoietins are members of the vascular endothelial growth factor family and the only known growth factors largely specific for vascular endothelium. Angiopoietin-1, angiopoietin-2, and angiopoietin-4 participate in the formation of blood vessels. The protein encoded by this gene is another member of the angiopoietin family that is widely expressed in adult tissues with mRNA levels highest in highly vascularized tissues. This protein was found to be a secretory protein that does not act as an endothelial cell mitogen in vitro. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008], similarity:Contains 1 fibrinogen C-terminal domain., tissue specificity:Highly expressed in adrenal gland, placenta, thyroid gland, heart, skeletal muscle and small intestine. Weakly expressed in testis, ovary, colon, pancreas, kidney and stomach.
