Effect of human recombinant leptin on lipid handling by fully differentiated Caco‐2 cells
Bibliographic record
Abstract
It has been established that leptin displays a number of effects on peripheral tissues. We have investigated the effect of the hormone on lipid synthesis, apolipoprotein biogenesis and lipoprotein secretion in Caco-2 cells. Immunocytochemistry revealed the presence of leptin receptors (Ob-Rb) on the basolateral membrane. Incubation of cells with 200 nM leptin resulted in a decreased export of triglycerides in the basolateral medium without affecting monoglyceride, diglyceride and cholesterol ester lipid classes. It also significantly reduced the output of de novo-synthesized apolipoprotein (Apo)B-100 and ApoB-48 as well as that of newly formed chylomicrons and of low-density lipoproteins. It also enhanced that of ApoA-I, ApoA-IV and ApoE. Our results support the hypothesis that leptin can affect energy balance at the gut level by reducing lipid release into the circulation.

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.
