Foamy macrophages, which have prominent lipid droplets (LDs), are found in a variety of disease states. Toll-like receptor agonists drive triacylglycerol (TG)-rich LD development in macrophages. Here we explore the basis and significance of this process. Our findings indicate that LD development is the result of metabolic commitment to TG synthesis on a background of decreased fatty acid oxidation. TG synthesis is essential for optimal inflammatory macrophage activation as its inhibition, which prevents LD development, has marked effe
