Triglyceride storage is altered across various chronic health conditions necessitating various
techniques to visualize and quantify lipid droplets (LDs). Here, we describe the utilization of …

Intramuscular triacylglycerol (IMTG) is both a dynamic fat-storage depot that can expand
during periods of elevated lipid availability and a fatty acid source that can be utilized during …

Excess lipid accumulation in peripheral tissues is a key feature of many metabolic diseases.
Therefore, techniques for imaging and quantifying lipids in various tissues are important for …

Context: The incidence of pediatric type 2 diabetes (T2D) is rising, with unclear effects on the
cardiovascular system. Cardiopulmonary fitness, a marker of morbidity and mortality, is …

Background It has been established that excellence in sports with short and long exercise
duration requires a high proportion of fast-twitch (FT) or type-II fibers and slow-twitch (ST) or …

The objective of the present study was to develop a combination of fluorescent stains that
would allow visualisation of the network of mitochondria and lipid droplets (intramyocellular …

Intramuscular lipid (IMCL) utilization during exercise was controversial as numerous studies
did not observe a decline in IMCL content post-exercise when assessed in muscle biopsies …

Intramuscular lipid droplets (LDs) and mitochondria are essential organelles in cellular
communication and metabolism, supporting local energy demands during muscle …

Women use more fat during endurance exercise as evidenced by a lower respiratory
exchange ratio (RER). The contribution of intramyocellular lipid (IMCL) to lipid oxidation …

Conventionally viewed as energy storage depots, lipid droplets (LDs) play a central role in
muscle lipid metabolism and intracellular signaling, as recognized by recent advances in …
