ATGL Promotes Autophagy/Lipophagy via SIRT1 to Control Hepatic Lipid Droplet Catabolism
Hepatic lipid droplet (LD) catabolism is thought to occur via cytosolic lipases such as adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) or through autophagy of LDs, a process known as lipophagy.

Targeting lipophagy and nuclear receptors in metabolic-associated fatty liver disease: insights from traditional Chinese medicine [PDF]
Background: Metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) represents a globally prevalent chronic hepatic disorder hallmarked by excessive lipid accumulation within hepatocytes.

Seeing is believing: visualizing spatiotemporal lipophagic flux in vivo with the tfLiveDrop reporter mice [PDF]
Lipophagy, the selective autophagic degradation of lipid droplets (LDs), is central to cellular lipid homeostasis, yet its dynamic regulation in living organisms has remained largely unobservable in real time.

Emerging Roles of Lipophagy in Health and Disease
The term lipophagy is used to describe the autophagic degradation of lipid droplets, the main lipid storage organelles of eukaryotic cells. Ever since its discovery in 2009, lipophagy has emerged as a significant component of lipid metabolism with ...

PLIN3-triggered lipophagic flux releases FFAs to facilitate CSFV propagation [PDF]
Viruses hijack host metabolic resources for replication. Previous studies have shown that classical swine fever virus (CSFV) infection induces host lipid metabolic reprogramming.However, research into the exact regulatory mechanisms between CSFV and ...

Low Shear Stress Promotes Atherosclerosis by Mediating Pathological Accumulation of Endothelial Lipid Droplets via the KLF4/TFEB/ATP1A1 Axis [PDF]
Background: Atherosclerosis preferentially develops at arterial regions exposed to low shear stress (LSS), highlighting the critical role of local hemodynamic forces in disease initiation and progression.

The essential effect of mTORC1-dependent lipophagy in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a chronic progressive liver disease with increasing prevalence. Lipophagy is a type of programmed cell death that plays an essential role in maintaining the body’s balance of fatty acid metabolism.
