چکیده

Figure 1. Lysosome fusion. Lysosomes fuse with late endosomes to form endolysosomes, which are major sites of acid hydrolase activity and the digestion of endocytosed cargo. Equivalent fusions of lysosomes with phagosomes or autophagosomes can also occur (not shown in detail). Lysosomes can be reformed from endolysosomes and autolysosomes via poorly understood fi ssion and maturation processes. Traffi c routes from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) deliver newly synthesized proteins to endosomes and lysosomes. Lysosomes

Endocytic Delivery to Lysosomes Mediated by Concurrent Fusion and Kissing Events in Living Cells

In mammalian cells, macromolecules internalized by endocytosis are transported via endosomes for digestion by lysosomal acid hydrolases . The mechanism by which endosomes and lysosomes exchange content remains equivocal . However, lysosomes are reusable organelles because they remain accessible to endocytic enzyme replacement therapies and undergo content mixing with late endosomes . The matura...

The protein tyrosine kinase Hck is located on lysosomal vesicles that are physically and functionally distinct from CD63-positive lysosomes in human macrophages.

In macrophages, lysosomes are suspected to have a heterogenous population of vesicles. This study was thus undertaken to identify and to characterize lysosomal compartments in human macrophages. Hck is a Src-family tyrosine kinase associated with secretory lysosomes in neutrophils and with cytoplasmic vesicles in macrophages that fuse with phagosomes. We identified these Hck-positive vesicles a...

Actin filaments and myosin I alpha cooperate with microtubules for the movement of lysosomes.

An earlier report suggested that actin and myosin I alpha (MMIalpha), a myosin associated with endosomes and lysosomes, were involved in the delivery of internalized molecules to lysosomes. To determine whether actin and MMIalpha were involved in the movement of lysosomes, we analyzed by time-lapse video microscopy the dynamic of lysosomes in living mouse hepatoma cells (BWTG3 cells), producing...

Lysosomal cystine transport. Effect of intralysosomal pH and membrane potential.

The regulation of lysosomal cystine transport was studied using cystine dimethyl ester-loaded lysosomes isolated from human diploid fibroblasts. Net efflux from normal fibroblast lysosomes was compared to that from lysosomes of cystinotic fibroblasts, which contain an inherited mutation decreasing lysosomal cystine transport. This exodus of cystine from normal fibroblast lysosomes was greater t...

Lysosomes are associated with microtubules and not with intermediate filaments in cultured fibroblasts.

Double immunofluorescent labeling experiments for lysosomes and either microtubules or vimentin intermediate filaments in cultured well-spread fibroblasts show a remarkable degree of superposition of the lysosomes and the microtubules. Under two different sets of conditions where the microtubules and intermediate filaments are well segregated from one another, the lysosomes remain codistributed...
