We have previously shown about the mechanisms underlying formation of lipid droplets in teleost oocytes as follows; plasma very low density lipoprotein is the major carrier of neutral lipids to oocyte lipid droplets, and Vldl is metabolized at the outside of oocyte, then free fatty acids derived from the Vldl metabolism are incorporated into oocyte. In this study, we focused on the role of lipoprotein lipase (Lpl), a key enzyme of Vldl metabolism, and analyzed its expression pattern in ovarian follicle using salmonids, medaka, pipefish and zebrafish. As the results, it was suggested that the presence of Lpl expressed in ovarian follicle cells is indispensable for the formation of lipid droplets in oocytes.
