SNX8 enables lysosome reformation and reverses lysosomal storage disorder
Lysosomal Storage Disorders (LSDs), which share common phenotypes, including enlarged lysosomes and defective lysosomal storage, are caused by mutations in lysosome-related genes.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infects lung myeloid cells, but the specific Mtb-permissive cells and host mechanisms supporting Mtb persistence during chronic infection are incompletely characterized.

Plasmodium Secretion Induces Hepatocyte Lysosome Exocytosis and Promotes Parasite Entry
Summary: The invasion of a suitable host hepatocyte by Plasmodium sporozoites is an essential step in malaria infection. We demonstrate that in infected hepatocytes, lysosomes are redistributed away from the nucleus, and surface exposure of lysosome ...

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) forms contacts with the lysosomal compartment, regulating lysosome positioning and motility. The movements of lysosomes are controlled by the attachment of molecular motors to their surface.

The mTOR–lysosome axis at the centre of ageing
Age‐related diseases represent some of the largest unmet clinical needs of our time. While treatment of specific disease‐related signs has had some success (for example, the effect of statin drugs on slowing progression of atherosclerosis), slowing ...

Background The phenotypic spectrum of many rare disorders is much wider than previously considered. Mucopolysaccharidosis type III (Sanfilippo syndrome, MPS III), is a lysosomal storage disorder traditionally considered to be characterized by childhood ...

Disruption of the Rag-Ragulator Complex by c17orf59 Inhibits mTORC1
mTORC1 controls key processes that regulate cell growth, including mRNA translation, ribosome biogenesis, and autophagy. Environmental amino acids activate mTORC1 by promoting its recruitment to the cytosolic surface of the lysosome, where its kinase is ...

Peripheral positioning of lysosomes supports melanoma aggressiveness
Emerging evidence suggests that the function and position of organelles are pivotal for tumor cell dissemination. Among them, lysosomes stand out as they integrate metabolic sensing with gene regulation and secretion of proteases. Yet, how their function
