Overview

Field Value
Namespace Biological process
Short description Lipid storage
Full defintion The accumulation and maintenance in cells or tissues of lipids, compounds soluble in organic solvents but insoluble or sparingly soluble in aqueous solvents. Lipid reserves can be accumulated during early developmental stages for mobilization and utilization at later stages of development.

Lipid storage and mobilization in insects: current status and future directions.Arrese EL, Canavoso LE, Jouni ZE, Pennington JE, Tsuchida K, Wells MA
Insect Biochem Mol Biol. 2001 Jan; 31 (1): 7–17.PMID: 11102830

In this paper we review the current status of research on fatty acid absorption and conversion to diacylglycerol in the midgut. We further discuss how diacylglycerol may leave the midgut and associate with lipophorin in hemolymph. We review the present understanding of the role of the lipid transfer particle and lipophorin receptors in lipid delivery between lipophorin and tissues. Finally, we discuss recent studies on the mobilization of diacylglycerol from the fat body in response to adipokinetic hormone. Several suggestions for exciting areas of future research are described.
