Adipose, or fat cells, remind people of a ring with a jewel on it (or a signet ring), because when viewing the cell in profile under a microscope, they look like a ring with a small jewel. The jewel is the nucleus and other cell components, while the ring is a large lipid drop surrounded by the cell membrane.
