Cholesterol esters form supercooled lipid droplets whose nucleation is facilitated by triacylglycerols

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Calvin Dumesnil from the (UNIVERSITY) have published the research work: Cholesterol esters form supercooled lipid droplets whose nucleation is facilitated by triacylglycerols, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of 27/07/2022
• what: The authors show that CE forms supercooled droplets when the CE concentration in LDs is above 20% to TG and, in particular, liquid-crystalline phases when the fraction of CEs is above 90% at 37 u00b0C.
• how: This result is consistent with the decrease in the number of nucleated LDs in the presence of DGAT inhibitors (Fig 2A-C). To simplify . . .
