We have developed and validated quantitative ELISAs for human angiopoietin-like (ANGPTL)3 and 4 and correlated their serum levels with parameters of lipid and carbohydrate metabolism. For this study, we used a random subsample of the Health 2000 Health Examination Survey consisting of 125 men and 125 women, aged 30-94 years. The anthropometric and biochemical parameters of subjects were characterized in detail. ANGPTL 3 and 4 levels were determined using the developed ELISAs. The intra- and inter-assay coefficients of variation for the assays were less than 15%. The average serum concentration of ANGPTL3 was 368 +/- 168 ng/ml (mean +/- SD) and for ANGPTL4 it was 18 +/- 23 ng/ml (mean +/- SD). ANGPTL4 serum levels displayed high variability between individuals ranging from 2 to 158 ng/ml. In post-heparin plasma, both ANGPTL 3 and 4 were increased. Low levels of ANGPTL3 were associated with decreased HDL-cholesterol and increased triglyceride levels. ANGPTL4 levels were positively correlated with FFAs (P = 0.044) and waist-hip ratio (P = 0.016). The developed ELISAs will be important tools to clarify the role of ANGPTL 3 and 4 in human energy metabolism and partitioning of triglycerides between sites of storage (adipose tissue) and oxidation (skeletal and cardiac muscle).
