[lipid-laden multilocular cell]
In fat tissues, some of these cells may be the same as multilocular fat cells or multilocular adipocytes (see: adipocytes) and represent pre-adipocytes. This cell type has been found also inside the thymic parenchyma and has been described as Lipid-laden foamy cells or lipid foam cells (Loewenthal and Smith, 1952), lipid-laden phagocytes (Spicer, 1960), and Fat-storing multilocular cells (Mello Coelho Vd et al, 2009).
Functionally, intrathymic lipid-laden multilocular cells (abbr. LLMCs) (Thymic Lipid-laden foamy cells;
