May support ANGPTL2 targeting in osteosarcoma; animal data leave open clinical translation.
Preventing ANGPTL2 signaling stimulated by the tumor microenvironment could inhibit osteosarcoma cell migration and metastasis.
Odagiri et al. (2014) studied Osteosarcoma. ANGPTL2 expression vs. Normal culture conditions / low expression was evaluated on Tumor metastasis and animal survival. ANGPTL2 expression in osteosarcoma cells promoted tumor metastasis and decreased animal survival by enhancing tumor cell intravasation mediated by integrin α5β1, p38 MAPK, and MMPs.
