our studies demonstrate that the lipid droplets (LDs) scaffold protein, PLIN3, is essential for HCV core-induced hepatic steatosis and provide new insights into the pathogenesis of HCV.

Postprandial triglyceride rich lipoproteins may be involved in atherosclerotic plaque formation through the regulation of perilipin-2 and perilipin-3 proteins in macrophages.

Collectively these data suggest that whereas perilipin 1 potently suppresses basal lipolysis in adipocytes, perilipins 2 and 3 facilitate higher rates of basal lipolysis

These findings show that TIP47 affects hepatic lipid and glucose metabolism and may be a target for the treatment of nonalcoholic fatty liver and related metabolic disorders.
Title: Reduction of TIP47 improves hepatic steatosis and glucose homeostasis in mice.

Data indicate that PLIN2 and PLIN3 may participate in acute lipid droplet formation in mammalian testes.
