Intracellular Lipid Droplets: From Structure to Function
Lipid droplets (LDs) are unique intracellular organelles that are mainly constituted by neutral lipids (triglycerides, sterol esters). As such they serve as the main site of energy storage in the cell and they are akin to oil emulsions in water. To prevent the direct exposure of the hydrophobic neut...
