In lipid storage diseases, enzymes that would ordinarily break down lipids so that they can be appropriately used are absent. This results in the progressive accumulation of large quantities of these lipids.

Why does lipid synthesis and metabolism occurs in different cell compartments?

Lipid synthesis and metabolism occur in different cell compartments to optimize efficiency and regulation. Fatty acid synthesis primarily takes place in the cytoplasm, where enzymes and substrates are readily available, while lipid oxidation occurs in the mitochondria, where energy production is maximized. Additionally, compartmentalization allows for distinct regulatory mechanisms, preventing conflicting metabolic pathways from interfering with each other and enabling the cell to respond appropriately to varying energy demands. This spatial organization also facilitates the transport and storage of lipids in specialized compartments like lipid droplets and membranes.

Where does the lipid breakdown?

Lipid breakdown primarily occurs in the small intestine, where bile salts emulsify fats, allowing pancreatic lipase to efficiently hydrolyze triglycerides into free fatty acids and monoglycerides. This process facilitates the absorption of these breakdown products by the intestinal mucosa. Additionally, some lipid breakdown occurs in the stomach, but the majority takes place in the small intestine.
