The Exocytosis Regulator Synaptotagmin V Controls Phagocytosis in Macrophages
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Synaptotagmins (Syts) play a key role in the regulation of Ca(2+)-triggered exocytosis and membrane fusion events, two crucial events associated to the phagocytic process. In the present study, we investigated the role of Syt V, a regulator of focal exocytosis, in phagocytosis. In macrophages, Syt V is localized on recycling endosomes and on filopodia-like structures and is recruited to the nascent phagosomes independently of the phagocytic receptor engaged. Silencing of Syt V by RNA interference revealed a role for this protein for phagocytosis, particularly under conditions of high membrane demand. In contrast, silencing of Syt V had no effect on the recruitment of the lysosomal marker LAMP1 to phagosomes, indicating that phagosome maturation is not regulated by Syt V. Collectively, these results illustrate the importance of Syt V in the regulation of an important innate function of macrophages. Furthermore, our results are consistent with the concept that focal exocytosis of endocytic organelles is a key event in phagocytosis and suggest that Syt V regulates this process.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
