2021, Methods in Cell BiologyPhilippe PihánPaula Nunes-HaslerNicolas DemaurexClaudio Hetz Chapter Carbohydrate-Processing Enzymes of the Lysosome 1 Introduction The lysosome is not only the waste-processing and recycling organelle in the cell, but it is also a part of a larger network of endocytos...
Lysosomes were found to have specific enzymes that could break down a cell's waste, as well as bacteria and other toxic substances. Nobel In Medicine: Recycling Cell Waste As a lysosome inhibitor, CQ led to the aggregation of autophagosomes and increased LC3-II level in diosgenin-treated K562...
Since the discovery of lysosomes by Christian de Duve in the 1950s (de Duve, 2005), much has been learned about their biology and function. Contrary to the long prevailing concept, they are not the dead end of the endocytic pathway, but rather a central and dynamic organelle with many ...
Further studying this unique population of autophagic lysosomes is likely to reveal additional aspects of cell biology previously missed and to suggest potential therapeutic applications relevant to animal aging and longevity. Methods Strain generation Supplementary Table 1 provides a complete list of ...

“inventory” of lysosome types is rudimentary to absent. Electron microscopic evaluations demonstrate that the podocyte cell body contains prominent lysosomes. The density of cell organelles in the podocyte cell body indicates a high level of anabolic as well as catabolic activity. In contrast to ...

Bovine tuberculosis is a chronic consumptive zoonosis, causing significant economic losses and critical public health risks. Coronin-1A is a host cytoskeleton-associated protein that is crucial for understanding the inhibition of phagosome-lysosome fusio
The various types of LSDs and their impact on cell biology is well reviewed by Boustany1 and Vellodi.2 Classically, the treatments for LSDs have been limited and focused on symptomatic care of disease manifestations. However, recent decades have seen the development and continual improveme...
