    • Neutral lipids are stored in the cytosol in so-called lipid droplets. These are dynamic organelles with neutral lipids as the core surrounded by a monolayer of amphipathic lipids (phospholipids and cholesterol) and specific proteins (PAT proteins and proteins involved in the turnover of lipids and in the formation and trafficking of the droplets). Lipid droplets are formed at microsomal membranes as primordial droplets with a diameter of 0.1-0.4 microm and increase in size by fusion. In this article, we review the assembly and fusion of lipid droplets, and the processes involved in the secretion of triglycerides. Triglycerides are secreted from cells by two principally different processes. In the mammary gland, lipid droplets interact with specific regions of the plasma membrane and bud off with an envelope consisting of the membrane, to form milk globules. In the liver and intestine, very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) and chylomicrons are secreted by using the secretory pathway of the cell. Finally, we briefly review the importance of lipid droplets in the development of insulin resistance and atherosclerosis.

    • PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Cytosolic lipid droplets are now recognized as dynamic organelles. This review summarizes our current understanding of the mechanisms involved in the formation of lipid droplets, the importance of lipid droplet-associated proteins and the link between lipid droplet accumulation and development of insulin resistance. RECENT FINDINGS: Lipid droplets are formed as primordial droplets and they increase in size by fusion. This fusion process requires the alpha-soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor adaptor protein receptor SNAP23, which is also involved in the insulin-dependent translocation of a glucose transporter to the plasma membrane. Recent data suggest that SNAP23 is the link between increased lipid droplet accumulation and development of insulin resistance. Lipid droplets also form tight interactions with other organelles. Furthermore, additional lipid droplet-associated proteins have been identified and shown to play a role in droplet assembly and turnover, and in sorting and trafficking events. SUMMARY: Recent studies have identified a number of key proteins that are involved in the formation and turnover of lipid droplets, and SNAP23 has been identified as a link between accumulation of lipid droplets and development of insulin resistance. Further understanding of lipid droplet biology could indicate potential therapeutic targets to prevent accumulation of lipid droplets and associated complications.
