Brain myeloid cells accumulate neutral lipids in multiple human neurodegenerative disorders and relevant mouse models. These lipids are often assumed to be contained in lipid droplets (LDs). While studies have been performed in cell culture and Drosophila models to characterize glial LDs, the roles of microglial LD biogenesis in mammalian tauopathy are unclear. To address this issue, we induced the deletion of diacylglycerol acyltransferases (DGATs) 1 and 2, enzymes critical for LD formation, fr...
