Changes in lipid droplet localization during embryogenesis of the silkworm, Bombyx mori. [PDF]
, 2008 Lipid droplets are considered one of the most important energy sources in lepidopteran eggs during late embryogenesis, but the process of their incorporation into the embryo is as yet unknown.

Replication of Marek's Disease Virus Is Dependent on Synthesis of De Novo Fatty Acid and Prostaglandin E2 [PDF]
, 2019 Marek’s disease virus (MDV) causes deadly lymphoma and induces an imbalance of the lipid metabolism in infected chickens. Here, we discovered that MDV activates the fatty acid synthesis (FAS) pathway in primary chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEFs).

Rab32 is important for autophagy and lipid storage in Drosophila. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Lipids are essential components of all organisms. Within cells, lipids are mainly stored in a specific type of organelle, called the lipid droplet. The molecular mechanisms governing the dynamics of lipid droplets have been little explored.

Tripartite phase separation of two signal effectors with vesicles priming B cell responsiveness. [PDF]
, 2020 Antibody-mediated immune responses rely on antigen recognition by the B cell antigen receptor (BCR) and the proper engagement of its intracellular signal effector proteins.

Pik3r1 Is Required for Glucocorticoid-Induced Perilipin 1 Phosphorylation in Lipid Droplet for Adipocyte Lipolysis. [PDF]
, 2017 Glucocorticoids promote lipolysis in white adipose tissue (WAT) to adapt to energy demands under stress, whereas superfluous lipolysis causes metabolic disorders, including dyslipidemia and hepatic steatosis. Glucocorticoid-induced lipolysis requires the

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 2019 Lipid droplets (LDs) store neutral lipids in their core as an energy source when nutrients are scarce. The center of an LD is hydrophobic, and hence it is surrounded by a phospholipid monolayer, unlike other organelles that have an aqueous interior and are bounded by a phospholipid bilayer.

The Gregarious Lipid Droplet [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2008 Cytoplasmic lipid droplets were considered until recently to be in the same category as glycogen granules, simple storage sites for energy, waxing and waning as metabolic energy needs dictated, but otherwise inert particles. It has become clear, however, that droplets are much more than isolated storage depots in the cell and that they can skate around

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Triglyceride depletion in THP-1 cells alters cholesteryl ester physical state and cholesterol efflux
Journal of Lipid Research, 2002 To study macrophage lipid droplet composition and the effects of TG on cholesteryl ester (CE) physical state, hydrolysis, and cholesterol efflux, a technique was developed to remove the majority of accumulated TG with minimal effect on CE content.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.
