Research Progress on Lipid Droplets in Animal Cells and Their Biological Functions
As an independent organelle,the functions of lipid droplet in lipid metabolism,stress relief,gene expression regulation and bacterial infection have got more and more attention of researcher.With the deepe-ning of research,our recognition of the biological function of lipid droplets is gradually clear,but there are still many problems to be clarified.In this paper,the recent research progress of elementary structures and charac-teristics of animal cell lipid droplets and their biological functions were reviewed,aiming to provide reference for subsequent research.[Chinese Journal of Animal Nutrition,2024,36(3):1375-1388]
