Cell biology in China: Focusing on the lysosome

Abstract: The view that lysosomes are merely the recycling bins of the cell has changed greatly during recent years. Lysosomes are now known to play a central role in signal transduction, cellular adaptation, plasma membrane repair, immune responses and many other fundamental cellular processes. In conjunction with the seminal discoveries made by international colleagues, many important questions regarding lysosomes are being addressed by Chinese scientists. In this review, we briefly summarize recent exciting findings … Show more

“…Lysosomes are the major digestive organelles that degrade both extra-and intracellular materials generated by endocytosis, phagocytosis, and autophagy; thus, they play important roles in many physiological processes such as the immune response, plasma membrane repair, bone resorption, and cell death (Luzio et al, 2007;Saftig and Klumperman, 2009;Xu and Ren, 2015;Yang and Wang, 2017). Lysosomes also serve as signaling hubs that sense cellular energy and amino acid levels and mediate signal transduction (Efeyan et al, 2015;Ferguson, 2015;Settembre et al, 2013).…”

“…Lysosomal pathways are among the immunological pathways enriched for differentially downregulated genes in the SC-SE group. Lysosomes maintain cellular homeostasis, act as signaling centers, integrate metabolism with cellular clearance, and are involved in many fundamental cellular processes such as plasma membrane repair, immune response, and cell death (Yang and Wang, 2017). The above results indicate that the immune genes and pathways that may be down-regulated after Vibrio infection during larvae period are not consistent with those of adults.…”

“…The nematode C. elegans , with its short life cycle, well-characterized genome, and powerful genetic tools, provides an excellent and unique system for genetic and cell biological dissection of lysosomal homeostasis and functions (Gan et al 2019 ; Li et al 2016a ; Liu et al 2012 , 2016 ; Xu et al 2014 ; Yang and Wang 2017 , 2021 ). Moreover, the requirement for lysosomes in animal development and aging is reflected in a straightforward way in C. elegans .…”
