ABSTRACT

Lipid droplets (LDs) are ubiquitous dynamic organelles that store and supply lipids in all eukaryotic and some prokaryotic cells for energy metabolism, membrane synthesis and production of essential lipid-derived molecules. There is increasing evidence that hepatitis C virus (HCV) has co-evolved due to its lack of lipid biosynthetic pathways to utilize host lipid metabolic pathways to establish a suitable environment for virus proliferation and obtain the necessary components, eventually promote the assembly and transportation of virus. In this review, we outline the relationship between HCV life cycle and lipid droplet biosynthesis and metabolism, with the aim to discover potential antiviral targets for development of new therapeutic interventions.
