"Historically, it has been difficult to identify lysosomal lipid transporters, limiting our understanding of the role of the lysosome in lipid metabolism and disease," said Professor David Silver ...

In a paper published in Nature Communications, researchers from Kyushu University, using cultured cells and mice, found that the lipid peroxidation of the lysosomes—the organelle responsible for ...

Metabolism breaks down in cells lacking retromer ... In the May 29 Nature Communications, they reported that cell membrane proteins are missorted, lysosomes get bloated with undigested cargo, ...

For the first time, the pathway through which cells repair damaged lysosomes has been observed and described. Lysosomes are the recycling center of a cell, where molecular waste is degraded into the ...

Lysosomes are membrane-bound organelles in cells that act as recycling centers—breaking down waste materials, damaged organelles, and unwanted molecules using powerful digestive enzymes ...

The lysosome is a small membrane bound organelle that can be found in most animal cells. It was once thought that these little sacs were like recycling centers that could take up cellular waste ...

a professor of cell death and metabolism at the Danish Cancer Society Research Centre, who was not involved in the work. Research had already established one way that cells repair leaky lysosomes.

Lysosomes are membrane-bound organelles in cells that act as recycling centers—breaking down waste materials, damaged organelles, and unwanted molecules using powerful digestive enzymes.
