fat cell [FBbt_00046052]
A cell that is the principal cell type of the fat body and is filled with lipid droplets. Adult and larval fat cells are specifically marked by Lsp2 expression, with greater expression at the larval stage (Lazareva et al., 2007 - FBrf0192478; Chintapalli et al., 2007 - FBrf0200485; Armstrong et al., 2014 - FBrf0226784). There is also relatively high expression of ppl and apollp in adult and larval fat cells (Colombani et al., 2003 - FBrf0161991; Chintapalli et al., 2007; Brankatschk and Eaton, 2010 - FBrf0211445).
