In the blood, circulating chylomicrons interact at the capillaries of adipose tissue and muscle cells releasing TG to the adipose tissue to be stored and available for the body's energy needs.

This study demonstrates that global or adipose tissue-specific knockout of CIDEC/FSP27 significantly reduces AAA incidence ...

Similarly, in co-cultures of rat primary cells grown in a salt solution that provokes mild oxidative stress, overexpressing tau in astrocytes slashed production of lipid droplets. Curiously, knocking ...

As lipid chaperones, FABPs may actively facilitate the transport of lipids to specific compartments in the cell, such as to the lipid droplet for ... or by maintaining adipose tissue energy ...

not only induce senescence in white adipose tissue but also significantly impair adipogenesis, reducing lipid droplet formation in both white and brown fat cells MPs are plastic particles less ...
