Definition
English
:
An angiopoietin that is closely related to
ANGIOPOIETIN-1
. It binds to the TIE-2 RECEPTOR without receptor stimulation and antagonizes the effect of
ANGIOPOIETIN-1
. However its antagonistic effect may be limited to cell receptors that occur within the vasculature.
Angiopoietin-2
may therefore play a
role
in
down-regulation
of
BLOOD
VESSEL branching and sprouting.
