Angiopoietin-2 Luminex Assays

Angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2; also ANGPT2) is a secreted glycoprotein that regulates vascular remodeling by promoting endothelial cell survival, proliferation, and migration and destabilizing the interaction between EC and perivascular cells. Ang-2 is required for postnatal vascular remodeling, and it cooperates with Ang-1 during lymphatic vessel development. It mediates the upregulation of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 on EC, which facilitates the adhesion of leukocytes during inflammation. Its direct ...
