Gene References into Functions
  1. Circulating ZAG levels were significantly higher in patients with CS than in controls. ZAG levels positively correlated to 24-h urinary free cortisol, body mass index, non-esterified fatty acids, glucose, LDL-C, and type 2 diabetes mellitus, and were inversely related to total adiponectin levels.(p=0.035). In multivariate analysis ZAG levels only correlated with body mass index (p=0.012), type 2 diabetes mellitus. PMID: 28440767
  2. Our study reveals that reduced AZGP1 expression correlates with in vitro cellular migration and invasion. In vivo, it is associated with higher metastatic risk and shorter survival in patients with soft tissue sarcomas PMID: 29357838
  3. results indicate that changes in the circulating level of S100A1 protein occur in metabolic syndrome patients; the strong correlation between serum zinc-alpha2-glycoprotein and S100A1 might suggest that production or release of these two proteins could be related mechanistically PMID: 28825380
  4. Study reports expression of Zinc-alpha2-glycoprotein (ZAG) in neurons. The level of ZAG was lower in temporal lobe epilepsy patients and time-dependently decreased in PTZ-treated rats. In addition, ZAG was shown to interact with p-ERK and TGF-beta. ZAG was found to be synthesized in neurons, and both the AZGP1 mRNA and ZAG protein levels were decreased in epilepsy patients and rat models. PMID: 28576733
  5. Our study provides prospective phase III validation that absent/low AZGP1 expression provides independent prognostic value in PC PMID: 28486686

  13. results indicate ZAG as a possible predictive marker of Gleason grade.
