Angiopoietins play important roles in angiogenesis and the maintenance of hematopoietic stem cells. Angiopoietin-like proteins (ANGPTLs) are identified as proteins structurally similar to angiopoietins, and the ANGPTL family now consists of eight members. ANGPTLs are secretary proteins, and some ANGPTLs are not only angiogenic factors but also proteins with multiple functions such as glucose metabolism, lipid metabolism. redox regulation and chronic inflammation. Chronic inflammation is one of the key factors in carcinogenesis and cancer growth. proliferation, invasion and metastasis. ANGPTL 2.3, 4, 6 and 7 are pro-inflammatory factors and regulate cancer progression, while ANGPTL1 inhibits tumor angiogenesis and metastasis. In this review, we describe the roles of ANGPTLs in cancer progression and discuss the possibility of disturbing the progression of cancer by regulating ANGPTLs expression.
