Abstract

In mammals, it has been widely accepted that there are three types of adipocytes; white adipocytes, brown adipocytes, and beige adipocytes. White adipocytes are comprised of unilocular large lipid droplet that can store triglycerides as energy, and they play a key role in energy metabolism by providing free fatty acids and glycerol through the hydrolysis of triglycerides [1]. In contrast, brown adipocytes are comprised of multilocular lipid droplet with rich mitochondria into their cell bodies.
