Preferred Term:

angiopoyetina-2

Definition:
Angiopoyetina que guarda una estrecha relación con la angiopoyetina-1. Se une al receptor TIE-2 sin estimularlo y contrarresta el efecto de la angiopoyetina-1; sin embargo, dicho efecto puede verse limitado a los receptores celulares que se hallan en la vasculatura, por lo que la angiopoyetina-2 puede cumplir una función en la regulación decreciente de la ramificación y la formación de vasos sanguíneos.
