Metabolism guides the activation states of regulatory T cells, the immune cells that prevent inappropriate activation of the ...
New research, published today in the journal Science, shows how lysosomes - organelles that act like cells' waste disposal system - respond to stress by becoming abnormally bloated, a process called ...
Lysosomes are thought of as cellular organelles that play an important role in recycling proteins and maintaning cells by breaking down stuff that isn’t needed. But new research has found that ...
The retromer complex controls protein sorting, transport, and disposal via the endolysosome system. It goes awry in neurodegenerative diseases, but how so remains unclear. Metabolism breaks down in ...
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 ...
Scientists studying tiny roundworms have uncovered how the secrets of a long life can be passed from parents to their offspring — without changing DNA. The discovery shows that when certain cellular ...

Lysosomes are tiny sacs of digestive enzymes that declutter cells by breaking down waste. But they can also be troublesome: When their outer surface is damaged, their destructive proteins begin to ...
In a rare disease called mucolipidosis type II, people's hearts and abdomens swell, and their bones grow malformed. In a rare disease called mucolipidosis type II, people's hearts and abdomens swell, ...
An RNAi based genetic screen and subsequent analyses reveal how dyneins and small GTPases coordinate autophagosome positioning at the ncMTOC in fat cells, advancing understanding of autophagic vesicle ...
