On the cover: CIDE-deficient adipocytes had smaller lipid droplets and an increased number of mitochondria and peroxisomes. The functional coordination among lipid droplets, peroxisomes, and mitochondria promoted fatty acid oxidation in adipocytes. Adipocytes were stained with BODIPY (lipid droplets, blue), MitoTracker (mitochondria, red), and PMP70 (peroxisomes, green).
