1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Apolipoprotein (apo)E is well established as a secreted protein that plays an important role in systemic lipoprotein metabolism and vascular wall homeostasis. Recently, endogenous expression of apoE in adipocytes has been shown to play an important role in adipocyte lipoprotein metabolism and gene expression consistent with a nonsecreted cellular itinerary for apoE. We designed studies to evaluate if adipocyte apoE was retained as a constituent protein in adipocytes and to identify a cellular retention compartment. Using confocal microscopy, coimmunoprecipitation, and sucrose density cellular fractionation, we establish that endogenous apoE shares a cellular itinerary with the constituent protein caveolin-1. Altering adipocyte caveolar number by modulating cellular cholesterol flux or altering caveolin expression regulates the distribution of cellular apoE between cytoplasmic and plasma membrane compartments. A mechanism for colocalization of apoE with caveolin was established by demonstrating a noncovalent interaction between an aromatic amino acid-enriched apoE N-terminal domain with the caveolin scaffolding domain. Absent apoE expression in adipocytes alters caveolar lipid composition. These observations provide evidence for an interaction between two proteins involved in cellular lipid metabolism in a cell specialized for lipid storage and flux, and rationalize a biological basis for the impact of adipocyte apoE expression on adipocyte lipoprotein metabolism.
