Zusammenfassung
Background: An adequate lipid homeostasis involving storage and distribution of lipids is crucial as disturbances contribute to fatty liver disease, type 2 diabetes and atherosclerosis. Dietary lipids are absorbed by the intestine and packed in chylomicrons (CM) for distribution. In the liver, lipids are either stored in cytoplasmic lipid droplets (LD) or secreted as very low density lipoproteins (VLDL). Generation of LD and VLDL/CM is initiated in the endoplasmic reticulum, followed by lipidation at the Golgi. Our aim was to clarify the role of Golgi-associated proteins in LD and VLDL/CM formation.
