Self-Assembly of HEK Cell-Secreted ApoE Particles Resembles ApoE Enrichment of Lipoproteins as a Ligand for the LDL Receptor-Related Protein
Open accessAbstract
Recent studies have shown that the lipidation and assembly state of apolipoprotein E (apoE) determine receptor recognition and amyloid-beta peptide (Abeta) binding. We previously demonstrated that apoE secreted by HEK cells stably expressing apoE3 or apoE4 (HEK-apoE) binds Abeta and inhibits Abeta-induced neurotoxicity by an isoform-specific process that requires apoE receptors. Here we characterized the structure of HEK-apoE assemblies and determined their receptor binding specificity. By chromatography, HEK-apoE elutes in high molecular mass fractions and is the size of plasma HDL, consistent with a multiprotein assembly. No lipid was associated with these apoE assemblies. Several methods for analyzing receptor binding indicate that HEK-apoE is a ligand for low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor-related protein (LRP) but not the LDL receptor. This suggests that self-assembly of apoE may induce a functional conformation necessary for binding to LRP. Our results indicate that, in addition to lipid content, the assembly state of apoE influences Abeta binding and receptor recognition.

The HEK293 expression system does not fully recapitulate the lipidation state or post-translational modifications of ApoE in primary astrocytes or neurons.

The lipid-analysis passage (page not provided) reports no detectable lipid in HEK-secreted ApoE, unlike astrocyte-secreted lipoproteins, which contain phospholipid and cholesterol. This supports the lipidation comparison, but the paper does not establish a corresponding difference in post-translational modifications or compare HEK-secreted ApoE with neuron-secreted ApoE on either measure.

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.
