Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common type of arthritis, affecting millions of people around the
world. Angiopoietin-2 (Angpt-2) has a role in the development of chronic inflammatory …

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an inflammatory autoimmune disease that destroys joint
cartilage and causes disability. Synovial inflammation, with angiogenesis, is an early event …

Abstract The Angiopoietin-2 (Ang2) gene encodes angiogenic factor, and the
polymorphisms of Ang2 gene predict risk of various human diseases. We want to investigate …

Objectives Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an inflammatory disease associated with accelerated
atherosclerosis and high risk of cardiovascular (CV) disease. Angiopoietin-2 (Angpt-2), a …

This study aimed to discuss association between serum Angiopoietin2 (Ang2) levels, Ang2
gene polymorphisms and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) susceptibility. It was carried …

Introduction Osteoclasts are responsible for the bone loss associated with rheumatoid
arthritis (RA). The secreted adipokine angiopoietin-like 4 (ANGPTL4) specifically increases …

Abstract Background Angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) is connected to angiogenesis in synovial
regions, but the significance of its levels in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is still …

Background: Objectives: To assess the potential role of angiopoietin-like protein type 4
(ANGPTL4) in metabolic disorders caused by inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) …

: Objectives: to study the role of type 3 angiopoietin-like protein (ANGPTL3) in the
development of osteoporotic processes associated with inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis …

Background and Objectives In contrast to normal synovial tissue, rheumatoid synovium is
hypoxic, and expresses the hypoxia-inducible transcription factors HIF-1α and HIF-2α which …
