Angiopoietin-1  

Type

  • Topical Descriptor

Broader concept

Note

  • see SCR for organism-specific terms

Scope note

  • The first to be discovered member of the angiopoietin family. It may play a role in increasing the sprouting and branching of BLOOD VESSELS. Angiopoietin-1 specifically binds to and stimulates the TIE-2 RECEPTOR. Several isoforms of angiopoietin-1 occur due to ALTERNATIVE SPLICING of its mRNA.

History note

  • 2004; use ANGIOPOIETIN-1 (NM) 1997-2003
