Abstract

Angiopoietin-like protein type 3 regulates the activity of lipoprotein lipase and endothelial lipase, and its inherited deficiency is accompanied by stimulation of lipolysis, combined hypolipidemia and benefits in cardiovascular risk. The pharmacological effect on angiopoietin-like protein 3 is realized through the action of monoclonal antibodies, antisense targeted therapy and direct genome editing and represents a promising way of lipid-lowering therapy, independent of the functioning of low-density lipoprotein receptors and effectively correcting mixed hyperlipidemias.
