Label-free third harmonic generation imaging and quantification of lipid droplets in live filamentous fungi

Scientific Reports, 2022
We report the utilization of Third-Harmonic Generation microscopy for label-free live cell imaging of lipid droplets in the hypha of filamentous fungus Phycomyces blakesleeanus.

Candidate genes responsible for lipid droplets formation during adipogenesis simultaneously affect osteoblastogenesis

Folia Histochemica et Cytobiologica, 2022
INTRODUCTION: With cellular lipid storage varying, the balance between lipid intake and lipid degradation was a must to keep healthy and determined the level of lipid droplets. Although lipid droplets accumulation had been well demonstrated in adipocytes,

Lipid droplets as ubiquitous fat storage organelles in C. elegans

BMC Cell Biology, 2010
Background Lipid droplets are a class of eukaryotic cell organelles for storage of neutral fat such as triacylglycerol (TAG) and cholesterol ester (CE).

Lipid droplets in the nervous system: involvement in cell metabolic homeostasis

Neural Regeneration Research
Lipid droplets serve as primary storage organelles for neutral lipids in neurons, glial cells, and other cells in the nervous system. Lipid droplet formation begins with the synthesis of neutral lipids in the endoplasmic reticulum.

Reversible Nuclear-Lipid-Droplet Morphology Induced by Oleic Acid: A Link to Cellular-Lipid Metabolism [PDF]

, 2017
Neutral lipidsÐinvolved in many cellular processesÐare stored as lipid droplets (LD), thosemainly cytosolic (cLD) along with a small nuclear population (nLD).

Lipid Droplets in Cancer [PDF]

, 2020
AbstractLipid droplets have a unique structure among organelles consisting of a dense hydrophobic core of neutral lipids surrounded by a single layer of phospholipids decorated with various proteins. Often labeled merely as passive fat storage repositories, they in fact have a remarkably dynamic life cycle. Being formed within the endoplasmic reticulum

Identification of the lipid droplet targeting domain of the Cidea protein[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2010
Cidea, the cell death-inducing DNA fragmentation factor-α-like effector (CIDE) domain-containing protein, is targeted to lipid droplets in mouse adipocytes, where it inhibits triglyceride hydrolysis and promotes lipid storage.

Asymmetrical Illumination Enables Lipid Droplets Segmentation in Caenorhabditis elegans Using Epi-Illumination Dark Field Microscopy

Frontiers in Physics, 2022
Lipid droplets are the major organelles for fat storage in a cell and analyzing lipid droplets in Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) can shed light on obesity-related diseases in humans.
