pubmed:abstractText |
Angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) is an antagonistic ligand of the endothelial-specific Tie2 receptor. Patients on dialysis have markedly elevated Ang-2 levels, and those correlate with their atherosclerotic burden. The aim of the current study was to investigate the relationship between the circulating levels of Ang-2 and renal function throughout all stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD). In addition, we aimed to detect a potential link between the nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) and the Ang-2 levels.
