Autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved process that aims to maintain the energy homeostasis of the cell by recycling long-lived proteins and organelles. We have very recently demonstrated that lipophagy, a special form of autophagy, mediates the association of the lipid droplets (LDs) with lysosomes to deliver the lipid cargo within the LDs to lysosomes for degradation in order to release free cholesterol required for steroid synthesis in human ovary and testis. In this chapter, we describe live cell confocal microscopy technique that allows us to monitor real-time cholesterol trafficking and the association of cholesterol-laden LDs with lysosome (lipophagy) in human granulosa cells.
