Angiopoietin-like protein 2 induces androgen-independent and malignant behavior in human prostate cancer cells

Angiopoietin-like proteins (ANGPTLs), which comprise 7 members (ANGPTL1-ANGPTL7), structurally resemble angiopoietins. We investigated the roles of ANGPTLs in the acquisition of androgen independence and the malignant behavior of human prostate cancer cells. Expression of ANGPTL messenger RNA (mRNA)...
