(Submitter supplied) Macrophages stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) plus interferon-g (IFNg) accumulate TGs in LDs, and long-chain acylcarnitines. Inhibition of TG synthesis results in diminished LD development, and increased long chain acylcarnitine levels, suggesting that FA fate is balanced between TG and acylcarnitine synthesis. Nevertheless, TG-synthesis is required for inflammatory macrophage function, since its inhibition negatively affects production of proinflammatory IL-1b, IL-6 and PGE2, and phagocytic capacity, and protects against LPS-induced sock in vivo.
