Lipogenesis is the metabolic process through which excess glucose and other substrates are converted into fatty acids and triglycerides, which are then stored in adipose tissue. This process plays a crucial role in energy homeostasis and is influenced by various hormonal and nutritional factors, connecting it deeply to the pathways of glucose metabolism and the body's metabolic adaptations in different physiological states.
