Knock-out experiments in mice have suggested a role for these receptors in blood vessel maturation. The ligands for Tie-2 have only recently been discovered: angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1) and angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) both bind Tie-2, but only the binding of Ang-1 results in signal transduction and regulation of blood vessel maturation (227). Therefore, Ang-2 is a natural antagonist of Ang-1 (146)." ; prov:wasQuotedFrompubmed:11172729 . sub:_5rdfs:label "Selventa" . sub:assertionprov:hadPrimarySourcepubmed:11172729 ; prov:wasDerivedFrombeldoc: , sub:_4 . }
