Lipophagy: Molecular Mechanisms and Implications in Hepatic Lipid Metabolism
The liver is the most significant metabolic organ in the body and plays an important role in lipid metabolism. Liver lipid metabolism disorders cause hepatic diseases such as hepatitis, hepatic cirrhosis, and hepatoma.

Lipophagy: a new player in CNS disorders
Lipophagy is the process of selective degradation of lipid droplets (LDs) by autophagy. Several studies have highlighted the importance of lipophagy in regulating cellular lipid levels in various tissues and disease conditions.

Macrophage Lipid Homeostasis Drives IVDD via a Senescence-Dependent Impairment of Efferocytosis. [PDF]
Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) has been a leading cause of low back pain and lacks disease‐modifying therapies. Although dysregulated disc lipid metabolism is implicated, its impact on the immune microenvironment, particularly macrophages, remains unknown.

Lipophagy-derived fatty acids undergo extracellular efflux via lysosomal exocytosis
The autophagic degradation of lipid droplets (LDs), termed lipophagy, is a major mechanism that contributes to lipid turnover in numerous cell types. While numerous factors, including nutrient deprivation or overexpression of PNPLA2/ATGL (patatin-like ...

Quercetin enhances fatty acid β-oxidation by inducing lipophagy in AML12 hepatocytes
Recent evidence demonstrated that chronic intake of quercetin attenuated hepatic fat accumulation in various animal models of obesity and diabetes. However, whether quercetin has the ability to enhance energy metabolism in hepatocytes and its exact ...
