Lipase
|
D008049 |
[An enzyme of the hydrolase class that catalyzes the reaction of triacylglycerol and water to yield diacylglycerol and a fatty acid anion. It is produced by glands on the tongue and by the pancreas and initiates the digestion of dietary fats. (From Dorland, 27th ed) EC 3.1.1.3.

Lipectomy
|
D015187 |

Lipedema
|
D065134 |
[Lipedema with secondary LYMPHEDEMA involvement.
, Disorder of adipose tissue characterized by symmetric and bilateral enlargement of the lower extremities due to abnormal deposition of SUBCUTANEOUS FAT often in obese women. It is associated with HEMATOMA, pain and may progress to secondary LYMPHEDEMA which is known as lipolymphedema.

Lipid Droplets
|
D066292 |
[Dynamic cytoplasmic organelles found in almost all cells. They consist of a central core of LIPIDS surrounded by a phospholipid monolayer studded with surface proteins, and are involved in LIPID METABOLISM and storage.
, Lipid-containing organelles found in plant tissues. They primarily contain TRIGLYCERIDES bound by a phospholipid monolayer.
