These anchored contacts are prevalent in oxidative tissues, including brown adipose tissue, heart, and skeletal muscle, and are thought to provide sustained access to LD-derived FAs, thereby supporting continuous -oxidation and ATP generation in energy-intensive states 82,131
It has been shown that ER, mitochondria, and LDs are in close contact during LD formation and that this contact is mediated by two proteins called oxysterol binding protein (OSBP)-related protein (ORP) 5 and ORP8 (Guyard et al., 2022)

Erucamide levels decreased drastically in degenerating retinas, indicating a possible neuroprotective function
In neurodegenerative diseases, functional impairment of ubiquitin drastically reduces the cells capacity to eliminate abnormal proteins via UPS, thereby increasing neuronal susceptibility to aggregated proteins and their associated toxicity
