Preprint alert!! How zonated hepatocytes adapt to changes in lipid influx due to fasting or a Western diet (WD). We developed a microscopy-based phenotyping method called single-cell phenomics (scPhenomics) to measure the features of mitochondria and lipid droplets (LDs).
Spatially resolved rewiring of mitochondria-lipid droplet interactions in hepatic lipid homeostasis. https://t.co/MoYrKgfPt5
