Exploring the Regulation of Lipid Droplet Catabolism through Lipophagy

Lipophagy is a selective form of autophagy that involves the degradation of lipid droplets. Dysfunctions in this process are associated with cancer development. However, the precise mechanisms are not yet fully understood. This protocol describes quantitative imaging approaches to better understand the interplay between autophagy, lipid metabolism, and cancer...

Analysis of Fluorescent-Stained Lipid Droplets with 3D Reconstruction for Hepatic Steatosis Assessment

Herein, we demonstrate an optimized BODIPY 493/503 fluorescence-based protocol for lipid droplet characterization in liver tissue. Through the use of orthogonal projections and 3D reconstructions, the fluorophore allows for successful discrimination between microvesicular and macrovesicular steatosis and may represent a complementary approach to the classical histological protocols for hepatic steatosis...

Lipid Droplet Isolation for Quantitative Mass Spectrometry Analysis

Lipid droplets are important organelles for the replication of several pathogens, including the Hepatitis C Virus (HCV). We describe a method to isolate lipid droplets for quantitative mass spectrometry of associated proteins; it can be used under a variety of conditions, such as virus infection, environmental stress, or drug...

Lipid Droplet Staining of Larval Drosophila Oenocytes: A Technique for Assessment of Lipid Droplet Accumulation Under Normal and Stressed Condition Using BODIPY-Based Dye

This video demonstrates lipid droplet staining in Drosophila larval oenocytes - hepatocyte-like cells - using the lipophilic fluorescent BODIPY based dye. These cells act as a model for studying lipid metabolism during development and in response to environmental stress such as...

Shaping the Amplitude and Phase of Laser Beams by Using a Phase-only Spatial Light Modulator

We show how to encode the complex field of laser beams by using a single phase element. A common-path interferometer is employed to mix the phase information displayed into a phase-only spatial light modulator to finally retrieve the desired complex field pattern at the output of an optical imaging...
