Lipid droplets characterization in adipocyte differentiated 3T3-L1 cells: size and optical density distribution

<p>The 3T3-L1 cell line, derived from 3T3 cells, is widely used in biological research on adipose tissue. 3T3-L1 cells have a fibroblast-like morphology, but, under appropriate conditions, they differentiate into an adipocyte-like phenotype. During the differentiation process, 3T3-L1 cells inc...
