Glial Lipid Droplets and ROS Induced by Mitochondrial Defects Promote Neurodegeneration (2015, unknown): “…we expressed two different lipases in mutant clones and assessed ND: Lipase 4 (Lip4), homolog of human acid lipases, functions in starvation mediated lipolysis, and brummer, homolog of adipocyte triglyceride lipase (ATGL), localizes to the LD surface, and acts in lipolysis (Gronke et al., 2005).”
INSECT FAT BODY: ENERGY, METABOLISM, AND REGULATION (2010, background): “The loss of ATGL caused accumulation of triglyceride and therefore fat flies, whereas its overexpression rendered lean flies (57).”
Molecular Evolution and Functional Characterization of Drosophila Insulin-Like Peptides (2010, methodology): “Organismal lipid, glycogen and trehalose content of 8–10 day old females was quantified as described [18,59].”
PAT proteins, an ancient family of lipid droplet proteins that regulate cellular lipid stores (2009, background): “Combined overexpression of the proteins results in intermediate triglyceride levels; thus, LSD-2 and Brummer act in an antagonistic manner [178].”
