abstract = {Lipid droplet (LD) binding proteins in mammary glands and
in adipocytes were previously compared and striking similar
sets of these specific proteins demonstrated. Xanthine
oxidoreductase (XOR) together with perilipins and the
lactating mammary gland protein butyrophilin play an
important role in the secretion process of LDs into milk
ducts. In contrast, in adipose tissue and in adipocytes,
mainly perilipins have been described. Moreover, XOR was
reported in mouse adipose tissue and adipocyte culture cells
as 'novel regulator of adipogenesis'. This obvious
coincidence of protein sets prompted us to revisit the
formation of LDs in human-cultured adipocytes in more detail
with special emphasis on the possibility of a LD association
of XOR. We demonstrate by electron and immunoelectron
microscopy new structural details on LD formation in
adipocytes. Surprisingly, by immunological and proteomic
analysis, we identify in contrast to previous data showing
the enzyme XOR, predominantly the expression of aldehyde
oxidase (AOX). AOX could be detected tightly linked to LDs
when adipocytes were treated with starvation medium. In
addition, the majority of cells show an enormous
interconnected, tubulated mitochondria network. Here, we
discuss that (1) XOR is involved-together with perilipins-in
the secretion of LDs in alveolar epithelial cells of the
lactating mammary gland and is important in the transcytosis
pathway of capillary endothelial cells. (2) In cells, where
LDs are not secreted, XOR cannot be detected at the protein
level, whereas in contrast in these cases, AOX is often
present. We detect AOX in adipocytes together with
perilipins and find evidence that these proteins might
direct LDs to mitochondria. Finally, we here report for the
first time the exclusive and complementary localization of
XOR and AOX in diverse cell types.},
