Liver fatty acid binding protein (L-Fabp) modulates lipid trafficking in enterocytes,
hepatocytes, and hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). We examined hepatocyte vs. HSC L-Fabp …

The lipid droplet (LD) is a cytoplasmic organelle, but it also exists in the nucleus under some
conditions or in some cell types. New studies have revealed that nuclear LDs do not occur …

Aims The microsomal triglyceride transport protein (MTTP) is critical for assembly and
secretion of apolipoprotein B (apoB)-containing lipoproteins and is most abundant in the …
