THEMATIC REVIEW SERIES: ADIPOCYTE BIOLOGY. THE PERILIPIN FAMILY OF STRUCTURAL LIPID DROPLET PROTEINS: STABILIZATION OF LIPID DROPLETS AND CONTROL OF LIPOLYSIS

Thematic review series: Adipocyte Biology. The perilipin family of structural lipid droplet proteins: stabilization of lipid droplets and control of lipolysis

The majority of eukaryotic cells synthesize neutral lipids and package them into cytosolic lipid droplets.In vertebrates, triacylglycerol-rich lipid droplets of adipocytes provide a major energy storage depot for the body, whereas cholesteryl ester-rich droplets of many other cells provide building materials for local membrane synthesis and repair.
