Fat is stored throughout the body in fat cells known as adipocytes. The number of adipocytes an individual has is determined by late adolescence and rarely changes during adulthood. However, fat cells can increase and decrease in size depending on the amount of fat that the body is storing.
Adipocytes are fat cells found in the human body. They can also be called lipocytes. One type of fat cell, the white fat cell, is important because it serves as a stockpile of energy. Brown fat cells can also store energy, but their more important function is their ability to create heat.he amount of fat, also referred to as lipids, stored in adipocytes is tightly regulated by the human body. There are two types of adipocytes present in humans, although in adults the amount of white adipose tissue greatly exceeds the brown adipose tissue. White fat functions to store lipids for future energy use.
