Influence of apolipoprotein A-V on hepatocyte lipid droplet formation
Open accessAbstract
Apolipoprotein A-V (apoA-V) is postulated to modulate intra-hepatic triglyceride (TG) trafficking. Stably transfected McA-RH7777 hepatocarcinoma cells expressing human apoA-V displayed enhanced neutral lipid staining while conditioned media from these cells had 40±8% less TG than cells transfected with a control vector. To obtain homogeneous cell lines expressing different amounts of apoA-V, a strategy of clonal selection was pursued. Immunoblot analysis of two distinct apoA-V stable cell lines yielded one that expresses low amounts of apoA-V and another that expresses higher amounts. Confocal fluorescence microscopy of control cells and cells expressing low levels of apoA-V had similar numbers of lipid droplets while cells expressing higher amounts of apoA-V had twice as many lipid droplets, on average. Thus, apoA-V expression promotes lipid droplet accumulation in these cells.

APOE and APOCIII were identified on nuclear lipid droplets in HepG2 cells, and APOAV has been reported on the surface of cytoplasmic lipid droplets in adipocytes.
“APOE and APOCIII were identified on nuclear LDs in HepG2 cells, and APOAV has previously been reported on the surface of cytoplasmic LDs in adipocytes (Shu et al., 2010; Gao et al., 2012; Sołtysik et al., 2019).”

The Discussion (page unavailable) reports apoA-V on cytosolic lipid droplets in hepatocyte-derived cells, supporting that part of the claim. It does not place apoA-V on droplets in adipocytes or report APOE and APOCIII on nuclear lipid droplets in HepG2 cells. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredAPOV and APOCIII have been shown to go to lipid droplets.
“APOV and APOCIII have been shown to go to LDs (Shu et al., 2010; Gao et al., 2012; Sołtysik et al., 2019).”
From APOE traffics to astrocyte lipid droplets and modulates triglyceride saturation and droplet size (2024) · cites this paper as Gao et al., 2012
The Discussion (page unavailable) says apoA-V accrues on cytosolic lipid droplets, supporting the apoA-V part of the sentence. The paper does not address apoC-III localization, so it cannot support that part of the claim. (LLM, conf=0.86)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measured

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
