A schematic of a unilocular fat cell showing a dominant lipid droplet and a peripheral nucleus. This cell, a mature adipocyte, belongs to adipose tissue within the connective tissue hierarchy and is studied in histology, physiology, and endocrinology. The cytoplasm is compressed by a large triacylglycerol (TG) droplet, with the plasma membrane enclosing a thin rim of cytosol and the eccentric nucleus. Functionally, adipocytes store energy, release free fatty acids, and secrete adipokines such as leptin, supporting metabolic homeostasis.
