Recent studies have also linked VMP1 to the cellular response against viral infections and lipid droplet (LD). Dysregulation of VMP1 has been observed in ... VMP1’s function as a host factor in ...

Also, when lipid storage capacity of adipocytes is defective by ablation of lipid droplet (LD) binding proteins such as Perilipin1 (Plin1), the levels of triglyceride and FFAs are elevated in adipose ...

In diatoms, a type of microalgae, ACBPs have been shown to be essential for lipid droplet degradation during stress recovery. A study identified a specific ACBP in the diatom Phaeodactylum ...

To their first question, the researchers found that adipocyte depletion happens quite early in the fibrotic process. Adipocytes in the skin contain one large liquid droplet of fat molecules (or lipids ...

Unsaturated fats are an essential part of your daily diet. Your body uses fats for energy, to keep cells working, produce hormones, and help your body absorb oil-based vitamins (A, D, E, and K). Since ...
