ANGPTL4 encodes a glycosylated, secreted protein containing a C-terminal fibrinogen domain. The angiopoietin like 4 is induced by peroxisome proliferation activators and functions as a serum hormone that regulates glucose homeostasis, lipid metabolism, and insulin sensitivity. This protein can also act as an apoptosis survival factor for vascular endothelial cells and can prevent metastasis by inhibiting vascular growth and tumor cell invasion. The C-terminal domain may be proteolytically-cleaved from the full-length secreted protein. Decreased expression of this gene has been associated with type 2 diabetes. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. This gene was previously referred to as ANGPTL2 but has been renamed ANGPTL4.蛋白别名为：ANGPTL4; ARP4; HFARP; PGAR; PP1158; PSEC0166; Angiopoietin-related protein 4; Angiopoietin-like protein 4; Hepatic fibrinogen/angiopoietin-related protein; HFARP;基因ID为：51129；蛋白质ID:Q9BY76
