ANG

ISO 4217 code for the Netherlands Antillean guilder. The currency traces its origins to the 18th century but took its current name in 1952. Throughout most of its history, it was pegged to the Dutch guilder; however, after the occupation of the Netherlands during the Second World War, it switched the peg to the U.S. dollar. It has maintained this peg at different values ever since. It is known colloquially as the florin.

In supernatants collected from HUVECs cultured alone for 5 days, we measured detectable release of angiogenin (2157 pg/mL), PDGF-AA (1292 pg/mL), PDGFBB (1500 pg/mL), endostatin (5523 pg/mL), thrombospondin (169 pg/mL), PIGF (149 pg/mL) and VEGF-D (143 pg/mL), CXCL8 (368 pg/mL), MMP-2 (116ng/mL), sVEGFR-1 (>200,000 pg/mL), and sVEGFR-2 (152 pg/mL), while HUVEC did not produce HGF or CXCL10, and detectable release of these latter two cytokines were not induced by addition of VPA or ATRA.
Angiogenesis has been attributed to many molecules including fibroblast growth factor, vascular endothelial growth factor, transforming growth factor [beta], angiogenin, angiotropin, angiopoietin 1, tumor necrosis factor alpha, and thrombospondin [9-11].
Other proangiogenic factors, namely, IL-8 [30, 53-56], hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) [57, 58], erythropoietin [59], angiogenin [60], macrophage migration inhibitory factor [61], neutrophil-activating factor [62], and TNF-[alpha] [63, 64], are all found at increased concentrations in the peritoneal fluid of patients with endometriosis.
In an effort to identify potential miRNAs involved in the regulation of angiogenesis and metastasis, Santhekadur and colleagues unraveled a linear pathway in which staphylococcal-nuclease-domain-containing-protein1 (SND1-) induced activation of NF-[kappa]B resulted in miR-221 expression and subsequent induction of angiogenic factors angiogenin and chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 16 (CXCL16).

Strong positive associations were noted among total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol, as well as angiogenin (ANG), TIMP metalloproteinase inhibitor 2 (TIMP2), [alpha]-2-HS-glycoprotein (AHSG), and apolipoprotein E.
In the next phase of their research, researchers will study whether mice that lack PHD2 expression develop more aggressive tumours, and whether blocking IL-8 or angiogenin slows tumour growth, Giaccia said in a press release.
The study was carried out to determine the senstivity and specificity of oc-fetoprotein (AFP) and Desy-carboxyprothrombine (DCP) as a diagnostic marker for hepacellullar carcinoma (hcc) and to study the angiogenic and antiangiogenic factors like vascular endothlial growth factor (VEGF), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), angiogenin and endostatin in patients with hcc.
