How many peroxisomes are in a cell

The number of peroxisomes in a cell varies widely depending on the cell type, organism, and metabolic state. Typical animal cells may contain anywhere from a few dozen to several hundred peroxisomes, while cells involved in intense lipid metabolism, such as hepatocytes (liver cells), may have higher numbers. Peroxisome abundance is dynamically regulated by cellular signals and environmental factors that influence their biogenesis and degradation.
