Abstract

En 中文
Purpose of reviewLipid droplets are increasingly recognized as distinct intracellular organelles that have functions exclusive to the storage of energetic lipids. Lipid droplets modulate macrophage inflammatory phenotype, control the availability of energy for muscle function, store excess lipid, sequester toxic lipids, modulate mitochondrial activity, and allow transfer of fatty acids between tissues.Recent findingsThere have been several major advances in our understanding of the formation, dissolution, and function of this organelle during the past two years. These include new information on movement and partition of amphipathic proteins between the cytosol and lipid droplet surface, molecular determinants of lipid droplet formation, and pathways leading to lipid droplet hydrophobic lipid formation. Rapid advances in mitochondrial biology have also begun to define differences in their function and partnering with lipid droplets to modulate lipid storage versus oxidation.SummaryThis relationship of lipid droplets biology and cellular function provides new understanding of an important cellular organelle that influences muscle function, adipose lipid storage, and diseases of lipotoxicity.
