| Gene Description | ANGPT2, angiopoietin 2, is a glycoprotein that prevents the function of ANGPT1 via binding to the Tie-2 receptor, thereby resulting in new vessel formation or disruption of existing vessels (PMID: 9204896). Elevated expression of ANGPT2 has been linked to a worse prognosis in lung cancer (PMID: 29118335). | ||||||||||
