Background Information
Angiopoietin 1 is a 70-kDa secreted glycoprotein generated from vascular mural cells, pericytes, and certain other cells. Angiopoietin 1 participates in vascular differentiation through angiogenesis, which is the process of the growth and remodelling of existing vessels. Angiopoietin 1 is also involved in the maintenance and turnover of blood vessels in mature animals. Angiopoietin 1 binds to and activates the TEK/TIE2 receptor by inducing its dimerization and tyrosine phosphorylation, playing an important role in the regulation of angiogenesis. Overexpression of Angiopoietin 1 has been proven to occur in malignant glioblastoma, neuroblastoma, non-small cell lung cancer, and other tumors.
