This project investigates the behavior of lipid droplets, focusing on their formation and fusion processes using microfluidics. By studying the role of specific proteins involved in these processes, the project aims to enhance understanding of lipid droplet dynamics and their implications in various diseases.
Lipid droplets (LDs) were believed many years ago to be mere passive reservoirs of lipids, which role was limited to supply lipids to cell membranes when needed and to avoid the accumulation of fat in adipocytes leading obesity.
Since this last decade a newly focus on LDs has led to understand their dynamic organelles behavior and their implication in many diseases proliferation in cells.
Indeed, the virus or proteins linked to them are located on LDs and therefore the understanding of the bioge…
