In steroidogenic cells, steroids are synthesized de novo from cholesterol stored in lipid droplets (LDs). The size of LDs regulated by adipose differentiation-related protein (ADRP) is closely related to cholesterol ester hydrolysis. Many studies reported that cadmium (Cd) had dual effects on steroidogenesis in granulosa cells (GCs). However, the role of LD and its regulation in abnormal steroidogenesis caused by Cd exposure remain unknown. In current study, female rats were exposed to CdCl2 during gestation a
