Distended fat cell, SEM C013 / 5013
Distended fat cell. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a large adipocyte (fat cell, blue) distended by fat droplets (purple). Adipocytes form an insulating layer of fat in the body to store energy. The majority of a fat cell volume is taken up by a large lipid (fat or oil) droplet. Fat accumulation starts with a few small lipid droplets which coalesce to make one large droplet. When mature, the adipocyte may be 10 or 20 times its original size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases a distended fat cell, providing a unique glimpse into the intricate world of cellular biology. The image, captured using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), reveals a large adipocyte or fat cell in stunning detail. Colored in shades of blue and purple, the adipocyte appears swollen as it is distended by numerous fat droplets. Adipocytes play a crucial role in our bodies by forming an insulating layer of fat that stores energy. In fact, the majority of this particular fat cell's volume is occupied by one large lipid droplet. It is fascinating to learn that fat accumulation begins with small lipid droplets that eventually merge to form this significant structure. The enlarged adipocyte depicted here can be up to 10 or even 20 times its original size when fully matured. This emphasizes the incredible capacity for expansion within these cells as they store excess energy. With its black background and vibrant colors, this print beautifully captures the complexity and beauty found within our own bodies. It serves as a reminder of the vital functions performed by these seemingly ordinary cells and highlights their importance in maintaining overall health and well-being.
