Abstract
⺠LPS treatment induces triglyceride synthesis and LD formation in microglia. ⺠LPS treatment leads to activation of p38 and JNK MAPKs. ⺠Perilipin-2 expression is increased following LPS treatment. ⺠Inhibition of p38 blocks LD accumulation and perilipin-2 expression. ⺠Cytosolic phospholipase A2-α colocalizes with LPS-induced LDs.
