Abstract
Lipid droplets (LDs) consist of a core of neutral lipids such as triacylglycerols and cholesteryl esters covered by a phospholipid monolayer. Recent studies have shown that LDs not only store neutral lipids but are also associated with various physiological functions. LDs are found in most eukaryotic cells and vary in size and quantity. It has long been known that mammalian oocytes contain LDs. Porcine and bovine oocytes contain substantial...
