Autophagic lysosome reformation in health and disease
Lysosomes are the primary degradative compartment within cells and there have been significant advances over the past decade toward understanding how lysosome homeostasis is maintained.

A proteolytic cascade controls lysosome rupture and necrotic cell death mediated by lysosome-destabilizing adjuvants. [PDF]
Recent studies have linked necrotic cell death and proteolysis of inflammatory proteins to the adaptive immune response mediated by the lysosome-destabilizing adjuvants, alum and Leu-Leu-OMe (LLOMe). However, the mechanism by which lysosome-destabilizing

The autophagy-lysosome system is an important cellular degradation pathway that recycles dysfunctional organelles and cytotoxic protein aggregates. A decline in this system is pathogenic in many human diseases including neurodegenerative disorders, fatty

The acidic environment within lysosomes is maintained within a narrow pH range (pH 4.5-5.0) optimal for digesting autophagic cargo macromolecules so that the resulting building block metabolites can be reused.

Screening of four lysosome-related genes in sepsis based on RNA sequencing technology
Purpose Screening of lysosome-related genes in sepsis patients to provide direction for lysosome-targeted therapy. Methods Peripheral blood samples were obtained from 22 patients diagnosed with sepsis and 10 normal controls for the purpose of RNA ...

Mitochondria-lysosome contacts regulate mitochondrial Ca2+ dynamics via lysosomal TRPML1
Significance Mitochondria and lysosomes are critical for cellular homeostasis and defects in both organelles are observed in several diseases. Recently, contact sites between mitochondria and lysosomes were identified and found to modulate mitochondrial ...

RUFY3 links Arl8b and JIP4-Dynein complex to regulate lysosome size and positioning
The bidirectional movement of lysosomes on microtubule tracks regulates their whole-cell spatial arrangement. Arl8b, a small GTP-binding (G) protein, promotes lysosome anterograde trafficking mediated by kinesin-1.

Lysosomes serve as cellular degradation and signaling centers that coordinate the turnover of macromolecules with cell metabolism. The adaptation of cellular lysosome content and activity via the induction of lysosome biogenesis is therefore key to cell ...

Based on genetic studies, lysosome dysfunction is thought to play a pathogenetic role in Parkinson’s disease. Here we show that VPS13C, a bridge-like lipid-transport protein and a Parkinson’s disease gene, is a sensor of lysosome stress or damage ...

New insights regarding SNARE proteins in autophagosome-lysosome fusion
Macroautophagy/autophagy refers to the engulfment of cellular contents selected for lysosomal degradation. The final step in autophagy is the fusion of autophagosome with the lysosome, which is mediated by SNARE proteins.
