Angptl6/AGF overexpression may promote photoaging via angiogenesis; hypothesis-generating in mice and should not yet change practice.
Overexpression of Angptl6/AGF promotes UV-B-induced skin alterations in mice, highlighting angiogenesis as a potential target for preventing skin photo-aging.
Okazaki et al. (2011) studied this question.
