Our study indicated that ANGPTL8 served as a novel negative regulator of pathological cardiac hypertrophy by binding to LILRB3 (PIRB) and inhibiting Akt/GSK3β activation, suggesting that ANGPTL8 may provide synergistic effects in combination with AT1 blockers and become a therapeutic target for cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure. Here, GSK3B is linked to cardiac hypertrophy.
