Unlike hypobetalipoproteinemia due to variants in APOB, individuals with variants in ANGPTL3 do not appear to to have increased susceptibility to hepatic steatosis or gastrointestinal or cardiovascular manifestations compared to unaffected relatives; Heterozygous individuals may demonstrate laboratory-based manifestations (eg, lower plasma LDL and triglycerides)

Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the ANGPTL3 gene is commonly pathogenic or not. These statistics are base on transcript: NM_000014495.4. Only rare variants are included in the table.

In the table, we include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, Mane Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equals 1. Click the count to view the source variants.

Warning: slight differences between displayed counts and the number of variants in ClinVar may occur, primarily due to (1) the application of a different transcript and/or consequence by our variant effect predictor or (2) differences in clinical significance: we classify Benign/Likely benign variants as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic variants as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Acts in part as a hepatokine that is involved in regulation of lipid and glucose metabolism (PubMed:11788823, PubMed:12909640, PubMed:23661675, PubMed:25495645). Proposed to play a role in the trafficking of energy substrates to either storage or oxidative tissues in response to food intake (By similarity). Has a stimulatory effect on plasma triglycerides (TG), which is achieved by suppressing plasma TG clearance via inhibition of LPL activity. The inhibition of LPL activity appears to be an indirect mechanism involving recruitment of proprotein convertases PCSK6 and FURIN to LPL leading to cleavage and dissociation of LPL from the cell surface; the function does not require ANGPTL3 proteolytic cleavage but seems to be mediated by the N-terminal domain, and is not inhibited by GPIHBP1 (PubMed:12097324, PubMed:19318355, PubMed:20581395). Can inhibit endothelial lipase, causing increased plasma levels of high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and phospholipids (PubMed:17110602, PubMed:19028676). Can bind to adipocytes to activate lipolysis, releasing free fatty acids and glycerol (PubMed:12565906). Suppresses LPL specifically in oxidative tissues which is required to route very low density lipoprotein (VLDL)-TG to white adipose tissue (WAT) for storage in response to food; the function may involve cooperation with circulating, liver-derived ANGPTL8 and ANGPTL4 expression in WAT (By similarity). Contributes to lower plasma levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol by a mechanism that is independent of the canonical pathway implicating APOE and LDLR. May stimulate hypothalamic LPL activity (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9R182, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11788823, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12097324, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12565906, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12909640, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17110602, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19028676, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19318355, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20581395, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23661675, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25495645, ECO:0000305|PubMed:20581395}.; FUNCTION: Involved in angiogenesis. Binds to endothelial cells via integrin alpha-V/beta-3 (ITGAV:ITGB3), activates FAK, MAPK and Akt signaling pathways and induces cell adhesion and cell migration (PubMed:11877390). Secreted from podocytes, may modulate properties of glomerular endothelial cells involving integrin alpha-V/beta-3 and Akt signaling (PubMed:18535744). May increase the motility of podocytes. May induce actin filament rearrangements in podocytes implicating integrin alpha-V/beta-3 and Rac1 activation. Binds to hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) and is involved in the regulation of HSC activity probably implicating down-regulation of IKZF1/IKAROS (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9R182, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11877390, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18535744}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Hypobetalipoproteinemia, familial, 2 (FHBL2) [MIM:605019]: A disorder of lipid metabolism characterized by less than 5th percentile age- and sex-specific levels of low density lipoproteins, and dietary fat malabsorption. Affected individuals present with combined hypolipidemia, consisting of extremely low plasma levels of LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20942659}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Note=May be involved in atherosclerosis. Plasma levels are closely associated with arterial wall thickness. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:17191020}.; DISEASE: Note=May be involved in nephrotic syndrome. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:25710887}.;
