The Claim
In C57BL/6J mice fed a high-fat diet, reduction of apolipoprotein CIII restores insulin-induced inhibition of lipolysis in adipocytes derived from both subcutaneous and visceral white adipose tissue.
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
In mice fed a high-fat diet, lowering apolipoprotein CIII allows insulin to suppress fat breakdown in fat cells from both under-the-skin and abdominal fat deposits.
See the scientific wording
In C57BL/6J mice on a high-fat diet, reducing apolipoprotein CIII restores insulin-induced inhibition of lipolysis in adipocytes from both subcutaneous and visceral white adipose tissue, indicating improved adipose tissue insulin sensitivity.
Lowering a specific protein called apoCIII allows insulin to stop fat cells from breaking down fat too much. It does this by fixing the levels of two key enzymes that break down fat, and by reducing inflammation in fat tissue, which lets insulin work properly again.
What the research says
1 studyIn obese mice, lowering a specific protein called apoCIII lets insulin do its job again—stopping fat cells from breaking down fat when they shouldn’t. This works in both belly fat and under-the-skin fat.
