IMPROVING THE THERAPEUTIC POTENTIAL OF LYSOSOMAL ENZYMES TO TREAT CNS IN LYSOSOMAL STORAGE DISORDERS [PDF]
Lysosomal storage disorders (LSD) are a large group of inherited genetic diseases caused by impaired activity of lysosomal enzymes leading to accumulation of undigested macromolecules within the lysosomes and thus cell dysfunction.

Mistargeting of the lectin ERGIC-53 to the endoplasmic reticulum of HeLa cells impairs the secretion of a lysosomal enzyme [PDF]
ERGIC-53, a homo-oligomeric recycling protein associated with the ER-Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC), has properties of a mannose-selective lectin in vitro, suggesting that it may function as a transport receptor for glycoproteins in the early ...

Subverting lysosomal function in Trypanosoma brucei. [PDF]
In this issue of Microbial Cell, Koh and colleagues present data highlighting the utility of the lysosomotropic compound L-leucyl-L-leucyl methyl ester (LeuLeu-OMe) as an anti-Trypanosoma brucei agent, adding to the range of compounds that either ...

Inflammation-Involved Proteins in Blood Serum of Cataract Patients—A Preliminary Study
Approximately 50% of all global blindness is caused by cataract in adults aged ≥50 years. The mechanisms of the disease are most arguably related to a redox imbalance and inflammation; therefore, the aim of the study was to evaluate the processes ...

Distribution of chromaffin secretory vesicles, acetylcholinesterase, and lysosomal enzymes in sucrose and percoll gradients [PDF]
Crude chromaffin secretory vesicles, obtained by differential centrifugation, were further purified on isotonic (Percoll) gradients. The chromaffin vesicle fractions recovered from the gradients contain acetylcholinesterase as well as lysosomal enzymes ...
