products description :
ANGPT2 Antibody: Angiopoietin-2 (ANGPT2) is a member of the Ang family, a family of angiogenic factors that play major roles in angiogenesis during the development and growth of human cancers, but also during lymphangiogenesis. ANGPT2 is generally considered an antagonist of ANGPT1 and endothelial TEK tyrosine kinase (TIE-2, TEK). ANGPT2 disrupts the vascular remodeling ability of ANGPT1 and is thought to induce endothelial cell apoptosis, resulting in vessel regression. Expression of ANGPT2 has been linked to invasive and metastatic phenotypes of gliomas and other cancers.

ncbi summary :
The protein encoded by this gene is an antagonist of angiopoietin 1 (ANGPT1) and endothelial TEK tyrosine kinase (TIE-2, TEK). The encoded protein disrupts the vascular remodeling ability of ANGPT1 and may induce endothelial cell apoptosis. Three transcript variants encoding three different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
uniprot summary :
ANGPT2: Binds to TEK/TIE2, competing for the ANGPT1 binding site, and modulating ANGPT1 signaling. Can induce tyrosine phosphorylation of TEK/TIE2 in the absence of ANGPT1. In the absence of angiogenic inducers, such as VEGF, ANGPT2-mediated loosening of cell-matrix contacts may induce endothelial cell apoptosis with consequent vascular regression. In concert with VEGF, it may facilitate endothelial cell migration and proliferation, thus serving as a permissive angiogenic signal. Interacts with TEK/TIE2, competing for the same binding site as ANGPT1. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Protein type: Secreted; Secreted, signal peptide.
