Abstract
Aggressive solid malignancies, including pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), can exploit lysosomal exocytosis to modify the tumor microenvironment, enhance motility, and promote invasiveness. However, the molecular pathways through which lysosomal functions are co-opted in malignant cells remain poorly understood. In this study, we demonstrate that inositol polyphosphate 4-phosphatase, Type II (INPP4B) overexpression in PDAC is associated with PDAC progression. We show that INPP4B overexpression promotes peripheral dispersion and exocytosis of lysosomes resulting in increased migratory and invasive potential of PDAC cells. Mechanistically, INPP4B overexpression drives the generation of PtdIns(3,5)P2 on lysosomes in a PIKfyve-dependent manner, which directs TRPML-1 to trigger the release of calcium ions (Ca2+). Our findings offer a molecular understanding of the prognostic significance of INPP4B overexpression in PDAC through the discovery of a novel oncogenic signaling axis that orchestrates migratory and invasive properties of PDAC via the regulation of lysosomal phosphoinositide homeostasis.

Abstract
Lysosomes are multifunctional organelles vital for cellular homeostasis with distinct subpopulations characterized by varying levels of Cl-, Ca2+, and H+. In situ visualization of these parameters is crucial for lysosomal research, yet developing probes that can simultaneously detect multiple ions remains challenging. Herein, we developed a lysosome-targeting ternary recognition ratiometric fluorescent probe based on tetrahedral DNA nanostructures (TDNs) to analyze lysosome subpopulations by Cl-, Ca2+, and pH. The TDN probe is assembled from four single-stranded DNAs, each end-modified with responsive fluorophores (Pr-Cl for Cl-, Pr-Ca for Ca2+, and Pr-pH for pH) or a reference fluorophore (Cy5). The fluorophores are integrated at the vertices of the rigid TDN to minimize mutual interference, and their fixed stoichiometry establishes a robust ternary recognition ratiometric fluorescence sensor for in situ resolution of lysosome subpopulations in living cells. Accordingly, a rise in lysosome subpopulations 2/6 characterized by low [Cl-], medium/high [Ca2+], and high pH was observed in the Niemann-Pick disease model cells but seldom observed in the control group. Conversely, there was a marked decline in the fraction of subpopulations 1/4/5 characterized by high [Cl-], medium to low [Ca2+], and pH. These changes were substantially reversed upon treatment. The probe holds great promise for studying lysosome subpopulations and the diagnosis and treatment of related diseases.

Abstract
Lysosomes are involved in a myriad of cellular functions, such as degradation of macromolecules, endocytosis and exocytosis, modulation of several signaling pathways, and regulation of cell metabolism. To fulfill these diverse functions, lysosomes can undergo several dynamic changes in their content, size, pH, and location within cells. Here, we studied some of these parameters during embryonic chick skeletal muscle cells. We used an anti-lysosome-associated membrane protein 2 (LAMP2) antibody to specifically determine the intracellular localization of lysosomes in these cells. Our data shows that lysosomes are highly enriched in the perinuclear region of chick embryonic muscle cells. We also showed that the wingless signaling pathway (Wnt)/β-catenin signaling pathway can modulate the location of LAMP2 in chick myogenic cells. Our results highlight the role of lysosomes during muscle differentiation and particularly the presence of a subcellular population of lysosomes that are concentrated in the perinuclear region of muscle cells.

Abstract
Zinc (Zn) based fluorescent metal complexes have gained increasing attention due to their non-toxicity and high brightness with marked fluorescence quantum yield (QY). However, they have rarely been employed in super-resolution microscopy (SRM) to study live cells and in vivo dynamics of lysosomes. Here, we present an NIR emissive highly photostable Zn-complex as a multifaceted fluorescent probe for the long-term dynamical distribution of lysosomes in various cancerous and non-cancerous cells in live condition and in vivo embryogenic evolution in Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans). Apart from the normal fission, fusion, and kiss & run, the motility and the exact location of lysosomes at each point were mapped precisely. A notable difference in the lysosomal motility in the peripheral region between cancerous and non-cancerous cells was distinctly observed. This is attributed to the difference in viscosity of the cytoplasmic environment. On the other hand, along with the super-resolved structure of the smallest size lysosome (∼77 nm) in live C. elegans, the complete in vivo embryogenic evolution of lysosomes and lysosome-related organelles (LROs) was captured. We were able to capture the images of lysosomes and LROs at different stages of C. elegans, starting from a single cell and extending to a fully matured adult animal.

Abstract
Most secreted proteins are transported through the "conventional" endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi apparatus exocytic route for their delivery to the cell surface and release into the extracellular space. Nonetheless, formative discoveries have underscored the existence of alternative or "unconventional" secretory routes, which play a crucial role in exporting a diverse array of cytosolic proteins outside the cell in response to intrinsic demands, external cues, and environmental changes. In this context, lysosomes emerge as dynamic organelles positioned at the crossroads of multiple intracellular trafficking pathways, endowed with the capacity to fuse with the plasma membrane and recognized for their key role in both conventional and unconventional protein secretion. The recent recognition of lysosomal transport and exocytosis in the unconventional secretion of cargo proteins provides new and promising insights into our understanding of numerous physiological processes.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD), recognized as the second most prevalent neurodegenerative disease in the aging population, presents a significant challenge due to the current lack of effective treatment methods to mitigate its progression. Many pathogenesis of PD are related to lysosomal dysfunction. Moreover, extensive genetic studies have shown a significant correlation between the lysosomal membrane protein TMEM175 and the risk of developing PD. Building on this discovery, TMEM175 has been identified as a novel potassium ion channel. Intriguingly, further investigations have found that potassium ion channels gradually close and transform into hydrion "excretion" channels in the microenvironment of lysosomes. This finding was further substantiated by studies on TMEM175 knockout mice, which exhibited pronounced motor dysfunction in pole climbing and suspension tests, alongside a notable reduction in dopamine neurons within the substantia nigra compacta. Despite these advancements, the current research landscape is not without its controversies. In light of this, the present review endeavors to methodically examine and consolidate a vast array of recent literature on TMEM175. This comprehensive analysis spans from the foundational research on the structure and function of TMEM175 to expansive population genetics studies and mechanism research utilizing cellular and animal models.A thorough understanding of the structure and function of TMEM175, coupled with insights into the intricate mechanisms underpinning lysosomal dysfunction in PD dopaminergic neurons, is imperative. Such knowledge is crucial for pinpointing precise intervention targets, thereby paving the way for novel therapeutic strategies that could potentially alter the neurodegenerative trajectory of PD.

Abstract
Limited nutrient availability in the tumor microenvironment can cause the rewiring of signaling and metabolic networks to confer cancer cells with survival advantages. We show here that the limitation of glucose, glutamine and serum from the culture medium resulted in the survival of a population of cancer cells with high viability and capacity to form tumors in vivo. These cells also displayed a remarkable increase in the abundance and size of lysosomes. Moreover, lysosomes were located mainly in the perinuclear region in nutrient-limited cells; this translocation was mediated by a rapid post-transcriptional increase in the key endolysosomal trafficking protein Rab7a. The acidic lysosomes in nutrient-limited cells could trap weakly basic drugs such as doxorubicin, mediating resistance of the cells to the drug, which could be partially reversed with the lysosomal inhibitor bafilomycin A1. An in vivo chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay indicated a remarkable decrease in microtumor volume when nutrient-limited cells were treated with 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) and bafilomycin A1 compared to cells treated with either agent alone. Overall, our data indicate the activation of complementary pathways with nutrient limitation that can enable cancer cells to survive, proliferate and acquire drug resistance.

Abstract
The microtubule cytoskeleton consists of microtubule subsets with distinct compositions of microtubule-associated proteins, which instruct the position and traffic of subcellular organelles. In the endocytic pathway, these microtubule-associated cues are poorly understood. Here, we report that in MDCK cells, endosomes with multivesicular body (MVB) and late endosome (LE) markers localize preferentially to microtubules coated with septin GTPases. Compared with early endosomes, CD63-containing MVBs/LEs are largely immotile on septin-coated microtubules. In vitro reconstitution assays revealed that the motility of isolated GFP-CD63 endosomes is directly inhibited by microtubule-associated septins. Quantification of CD63-positive endosomes containing the early endosome antigen (EEA1), the Rab7 effector and dynein adaptor RILP or Rab27a, showed that intermediary EEA1- and RILP-positive GFP-CD63 preferentially associate with septin-coated microtubules. Septin knockdown enhanced GFP-CD63 motility and decreased the percentage of CD63-positive MVBs/LEs with lysobiphosphatidic acid without impacting the fraction of EEA1-positive CD63. These results suggest that MVB maturation involves immobilization on septin-coated microtubules, which may facilitate multivesiculation and/or organelle-organelle contacts.

Abstract
Polymers are endocytosed and hydrolysed by lysosomal enzymes to generate transportable solutes. While the transport of diverse organic solutes across the plasma membrane is well studied, their necessary ongoing efflux from the endocytic fluid into the cytosol is poorly appreciated by comparison. Myeloid cells that employ specialized types of endocytosis, that is, phagocytosis and macropinocytosis, are highly dependent on such transport pathways to prevent the build-up of hydrostatic pressure that otherwise offsets lysosomal dynamics including vesiculation, tubulation and fission. Without undergoing rupture, we found that lysosomes incurring this pressure owing to defects in solute efflux, are unable to retain luminal Na+, which collapses its gradient with the cytosol. This cation 'leak' is mediated by pressure-sensitive channels resident to lysosomes and leads to the inhibition of mTORC1, which is normally activated by Na+-coupled amino acid transporters driven by the Na+ gradient. As a consequence, the transcription factors TFEB/TFE3 are made active in macrophages with distended lysosomes. In addition to their role in lysosomal biogenesis, TFEB/TFE3 activation causes the release of MCP-1/CCL2. In catabolically stressed tissues, defects in efflux of solutes from the endocytic pathway leads to increased monocyte recruitment. Here we propose that macrophages respond to a pressure-sensing pathway on lysosomes to orchestrate lysosomal biogenesis as well as myeloid cell recruitment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Platelets coordinate blood coagulation at sites of vascular injury and play fundamental roles in a wide variety of (patho)physiological processes. Key to many platelet functions is the transport and secretion of proteins packaged within α-granules, organelles produced by platelet precursor megakaryocytes. Prominent among α-granule cargo are fibrinogen endocytosed from plasma and endogenously synthesized von Willebrand factor. These and other proteins are known to require acidic pH for stable packaging. Luminal acidity has been confirmed for mature α-granules isolated from platelets, but direct measurement of megakaryocyte granule acidity has not been reported. OBJECTIVES To determine the luminal pH of α-granules and their precursors in megakaryocytes and assess the requirement of vacuolar-type adenosine triphosphatase (V-ATPase) activity to establish and maintain the luminal acidity and integrity of these organelles. METHODS Cresyl violet staining was used to detect acidic granules in megakaryocytes. Endocytosis of fibrinogen tagged with the pH-sensitive fluorescent dye fluorescein isothiocyanate was used to load a subset of these organelles. Ratiometric fluorescence analysis was used to determine their luminal pH. RESULTS We show that most of the acidic granules detected in megakaryocytes appear to be α-granules/precursors, for which we established a median luminal pH of 5.2 (IQR, 5.0-5.5). Inhibition of megakaryocyte V-ATPase activity led to enlargement of cargo-containing compartments detected by fluorescence microscopy and electron microscopy. CONCLUSION These observations reveal that V-ATPase activity is required to establish and maintain a luminal acidic pH in megakaryocyte α-granules/precursors, confirming its importance for stable packaging of cargo proteins such as von Willebrand factor.

Abstract
Endo-lysosomes are considered acidic Ca 2+ stores but direct measurements of luminal Ca 2+ within them are limited. Here we report that the Ca 2+ -sensitive luminescent protein aequorin does not reconstitute with its cofactor at highly acidic pH but that a significant fraction of the probe is functional within a mildly acidic compartment when targeted to the endo-lysosomal system. We leveraged this probe (ELGA) to report Ca 2+ dynamics in this compartment. We show that Ca 2+ uptake is ATP-dependent and sensitive to blockers of endoplasmic reticulum Ca 2+ pumps. We find that the Ca 2+ mobilizing messenger IP 3 which typically targets the endoplasmic reticulum evokes robust luminal responses in wild type cells, but not in IP 3 receptor knock-out cells. Responses were comparable to those evoked by activation of the endo-lysosomal ion channel TRPML1. Stimulation with IP 3 -forming agonists also mobilized the store in intact cells. Super-resolution microscopy analysis confirmed the presence of IP 3 receptors within the endo-lysosomal system, both in live and fixed cells. Our data reveal a physiologically-relevant, IP 3 -sensitive store of Ca 2+ within the endo-lysosomal system.

Abstract
Intracellular organelles support cellular physiology in diverse conditions. In the skin, epidermal keratinocytes undergo differentiation with gradual changes in cellular physiology, accompanying remodeling of lysosomes and the Golgi apparatus. However, it was not known whether changes in Golgi and lysosome morphology and their redistribution were linked. Here, we show that disassembled Golgi is distributed in close physical apposition to lysosomes in differentiated keratinocytes. This atypical localization requires the Golgi tethering protein GRASP65, which is associated with both the Golgi and lysosome membranes. Depletion of GRASP65 results in the loss of Golgi-lysosome apposition and the malformation of lysosomes, defined by their aberrant morphology, size, and function. Surprisingly, a trans-Golgi enzyme and secretory Golgi cargoes are extensively localized to the lysosome lumen and secreted to the cell surface, contributing to total protein secretion of differentiated keratinocytes but not in proliferative precursors, indicating that lysosomes acquire specialization during differentiation. We further demonstrate that the secretory function of the Golgi apparatus is critical to maintain keratinocyte lysosomes. Our study uncovers a novel form of Golgi-lysosome cross-talk and its role in maintaining specialized secretory lysosomes in differentiated keratinocytes.

Abstract
Photoprotective melanins in the skin are synthesised by epidermal melanocytes within specialised lysosome-related organelles called melanosomes. Melanosomes coexist with lysosomes; thus, melanocytes employ specific trafficking machineries to ensure correct cargo delivery to either the endolysosomal system or maturing melanosomes. Mutations in some of the protein complexes required for melanogenic cargo delivery, such as biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles complex 1 (BLOC-1), result in hypopigmentation due to mistrafficking of cargo to endolysosomes. We show that hypopigmented BLOC-1-deficient melanocytes retain melanogenic capacity that can be enhanced by treatment with cAMP elevating agents despite the mislocalisation of melanogenic proteins. The melanin formed in BLOC-1-deficient melanocytes is not generated in melanosomes but rather within late endosomes/lysosomes to which some cargoes mislocalise. Although these organelles generally are acidic, a cohort of late endosomes/lysosomes have a sufficiently neutral pH to facilitate melanogenesis, perhaps due to mislocalised melanosomal transporters and melanogenic enzymes. Modulation of the pH of late endosomes/lysosomes by genetic manipulation or via treatment with lysosomotropic agents significantly enhances the melanin content of BLOC-1-deficient melanocytes. Our data suggest that upregulation of mistargeted cargoes can facilitate reprogramming of a subset of endolysosomes to generate some functions of lysosome-related organelles.

Abstract
Mutations in Cl-/H+ antiporter ClC-5 cause Dent's disease type 1 (DD1), a rare tubulopathy that progresses to renal fibrosis and kidney failure. Here, we have used DD1 human cellular models and renal tissue from DD1 mice to unravel the role of ClC-5 in renal fibrosis. Our results in cell systems have shown that ClC-5 deletion causes an increase in collagen I (Col I) and IV (Col IV) intracellular levels by promoting their transcription through the β-catenin pathway and impairing their lysosomal-mediated degradation. Increased production of Col I/IV in ClC-5-depleted cells ends up in higher release to the extracellular medium, which may lead to renal fibrosis. Furthermore, our data have revealed that 3-mo-old mice lacking ClC-5 (Clcn5 +/- and Clcn5 -/- ) present higher renal collagen deposition and fibrosis than WT mice. Altogether, we describe a new regulatory mechanism for collagens' production and release by ClC-5, which is altered in DD1 and provides a better understanding of disease progression to renal fibrosis.

Abstract
Cellular processes including lysosomal and mitochondrial dysfunction are implicated in the development of many diseases. Quantitative visualization of mitochondria and lysosoesl is crucial to understand how these organelles are dysregulated during disease. To address a gap in live-imaging tools, we developed GEM-SCOPe (Genetically Encoded and Modular SubCellular Organelle Probes), a modular toolbox of fluorescent markers designed to inform on localization, distribution, turnover, and oxidative stress of specific organelles. We expressed GEM-SCOPe in differentiated astrocytes and neurons from a human pluripotent stem cell PRKN-knockout model of Parkinson's disease and identified disease-associated changes in proliferation, lysosomal distribution, mitochondrial transport and turnover, and reactive oxygen species. We demonstrate GEM-SCOPe is a powerful panel that provide critical insight into the subcellular mechanisms underlying Parkinson's disease in human cells. GEM-SCOPe can be expanded upon and applied to a diversity of cellular models to glean an understanding of the mechanisms that promote disease onset and progression.

Abstract
Lysosomes are highly dynamic organelles that maintain cellular homeostasis and regulate fundamental cellular processes by integrating multiple metabolic pathways. Lysosomal ion channels such as TRPML1-3, TPC1/2, ClC6/7, CLN7, and TMEM175 mediate the flux of Ca2+, Cl-, Na+, H+, and K+ across lysosomal membranes in response to osmotic stimulus, nutrient-dependent signals, and cellular stresses. These ion channels serve as the crucial transducers of cell signals and are essential for the regulation of lysosomal biogenesis, motility, membrane contact site formation, and lysosomal homeostasis. In terms of pathophysiology, genetic variations in these channel genes have been associated with the development of lysosomal storage diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, inflammation, and cancer. This review aims to discuss the current understanding of the role of these ion channels in the central nervous system and to assess their potential as drug targets.

Abstract
Cell homeostasis and function rely on well-orchestrated communication between different organelles. This communication is ensured by signaling pathways and membrane contact sites between organelles. Many players involved in organelle crosstalk have been identified, predominantly proteins and ions. The role of lipids in interorganelle communication remains poorly understood. With the development and broader availability of methods to quantify lipids, as well as improved spatiotemporal resolution in detecting different lipid species, the contribution of lipids to organelle interactions starts to be evident. However, the specific roles of various lipid molecules in intracellular communication remain to be studied systematically. We summarize new insights in the interorganelle communication field from the perspective of organelles and discuss the roles played by lipids in these complex processes.

Abstract
Lysosomes, the hub of metabolic signaling, are associated with various diseases and participate in autophagy by supplying nutrients to cells under nutrient starvation. However, their function and regulation under glucose starvation remain unclear and are studied herein. Under glucose starvation, lysosomal protein expression decreased, leading to the accumulation of damaged lysosomes. Subsequently, cell death occurred via ferroptosis and iron accumulation due to DMT1 degradation. GPX4, a key factor in ferroptosis inhibition located on the outer membrane of lysosomes, accumulated in lysosomes, especially under glucose starvation, to protect cells from ferroptosis. ALDOA, GAPDH, NAMPT, and PGK1 are also located on the outer membrane of lysosomes and participate in lysosomal function. These enzymes did not function effectively under glucose starvation, leading to lysosomal dysfunction and ferroptosis. These findings may facilitate the treatment of lysosomal-related diseases.

Abstract
The assessment of atherosclerosis (AS) progression has emerged as a prominent area of research. Monitoring various pathological features of foam cell (FC) formation is imperative to comprehensively assess AS progression. Herein, a simple benzospiropyran-julolidine-based probe, BSJD, with switchable dual-color imaging ability was developed. This probe can dynamically and reversibly adjust its molecular structure and fluorescent properties in different polar and pH environments. Such a polarity and pH dual-responsive characteristic makes it superior to single-responsive probes in dual-color imaging of lipid droplets (LDs) and lysosomes as well as monitoring their interaction. By simultaneously tracking various pathological features, including LD accumulation and size changes, lysosome dysfunction, and dynamically regulated lipophagy, more comprehensive information can be obtained for multiparameter assessment of FC formation progression. Using BSJD, not only the activation of lipophagy in the early stages and inhibition in the later phases during FC formation are clearly observed but also the important roles of lipophagy in regulating lipid metabolism and alleviating FC formation are demonstrated. Furthermore, BSJD is demonstrated to be capable of rapidly imaging FC plaque sites in AS mice with fast pharmacokinetics. Altogether, BSJD holds great promise as a dual-color organelle-imaging tool for investigating disease-related LD and lysosome changes and their interactions.

Abstract
Endosomal-lysosomal trafficking is accompanied by the acidification of endosomal compartments by the H+-V-ATPase to reach low lysosomal pH. Disruption of the correct pH impairs lysosomal function and the balance of protein synthesis and degradation (proteostasis). Here, we treated mammalian cells with the small dipeptide LLOMe, which is known to permeabilize lysosomal membranes, and find that LLOMe also impacts late endosomes (LEs) by neutralizing their pH without causing membrane permeabilization. We show that LLOMe leads to hyperactivation of Rab7 (herein referring to Rab7a), and disruption of tubulation and mannose-6-phosphate receptor (CI-M6PR; also known as IGF2R) recycling on pH-neutralized LEs. pH neutralization (NH4Cl) and expression of Rab7 hyperactive mutants alone can both phenocopy the alterations in tubulation and CI-M6PR trafficking. Mechanistically, pH neutralization increases the assembly of the V1G1 subunit (encoded by ATP6V1G1) of the V-ATPase on endosomal membranes, which stabilizes GTP-bound Rab7 via RILP, a known interactor of Rab7 and V1G1. We propose a novel pathway by which V-ATPase and RILP modulate LE pH and Rab7 activation in concert. This pathway might broadly contribute to pH control during physiologic endosomal maturation or starvation and during pathologic pH neutralization, which occurs via lysosomotropic compounds and in disease states.

Abstract
The recent elegant study by Y. Yuan and colleagues examined functional relationships between the lysosomal two-pore channels 2 (TPC2) and IP3 receptors (IP3Rs) located in the endoplasmic reticulum [1]. The findings of this study suggest functional coupling of these channels and receptors. The study also describes interesting novel phenomena, which may indicate an additional coupling mechanism.

Abstract
Regulation of the luminal pH of late endocytic compartments in continuously fed mammalian cells is poorly understood. Using normal rat kidney fibroblasts, we investigated the reversible assembly/disassembly of the proton pumping V-ATPase when endolysosomes are formed by kissing and fusion of late endosomes with lysosomes and during the subsequent reformation of lysosomes. We took advantage of previous work showing that sucrosomes formed by the uptake of sucrose are swollen endolysosomes from which lysosomes are reformed after uptake of invertase. Using confocal microscopy and subcellular fractionation of NRK cells stably expressing fluorescently tagged proteins, we found net recruitment of the V1 subcomplex during sucrosome formation and loss during lysosome reformation, with a similar time course to RAB7a loss. Addition of invertase did not alter mTORC1 signalling, suggesting that the regulation of reversible V-ATPase assembly/disassembly in continuously fed cells differs from that in cells subject to amino acid depletion/refeeding. Using live cell microscopy, we demonstrated recruitment of a fluorescently tagged V1 subunit during endolysosome formation and a dynamic equilibrium and rapid exchange between the cytosolic and membrane bound pools of this subunit. We conclude that reversible V-ATPase assembly/disassembly plays a key role in regulating endolysosomal/lysosomal pH in continuously fed cells.

Abstract
The study aimed to investigate late radiation-induced changes in the histology, ultrastructure, and activity of lysosomal enzymes in mouse liver exposed to ionizing radiation. The experiment was conducted on C57BL/6J male mice whose distal part of the liver was exposed occasionally to single doses of radiation (6 MV photons) during targeted heart irradiation; estimated doses delivered to analyzed tissue were 0.025 Gy, 0.25 Gy, 1 Gy, and 2 Gy. Tissues were collected 40 weeks after irradiation. We have observed that late effects of radiation have an adaptive nature and their intensity was dose-dependent. Morphological changes in hepatocytes included an increased number of primary lysosomes and autophagic vacuoles, which were visible in tissues irradiated with 0.25 Gy and higher doses. On the other hand, a significant increase in the activity of lysosomal hydrolases was observed only in tissues exposed to 2 Gy. The etiology of these changes may be multifactorial and result, among others, from unintentional irradiation of the distal part of the liver and/or functional interaction of the liver with an irradiated heart. In conclusion, we confirmed the presence of late dose-dependent ultrastructural and biochemical changes in mouse hepatocytes after liver irradiation in vivo.

Abstract
Cell diversification is at the base of increasing multicellular organism complexity in phylogeny achieved during ontogeny. However, there are also functions common to all cells, such as cell division, cell migration, translation, endocytosis, exocytosis, etc. Here we revisit the organelles involved in such common functions, reviewing recent evidence of unexpected differences of proteins at these organelles. For instance, centrosomes or mitochondria differ significantly in their protein composition in different, sometimes closely related, cell types. This has relevance for development and disease. Particularly striking is the high amount and diversity of RNA-binding proteins at these and other organelles, which brings us to review the evidence for RNA at different organelles and suborganelles. We include a discussion about (sub)organelles involved in translation, such as the nucleolus and ribosomes, for which unexpected cell type-specific diversity has also been reported. We propose here that the heterogeneity of these organelles and compartments represents a novel mechanism for regulating cell diversity. One reason is that protein functions can be multiplied by their different contributions in distinct organelles, as also exemplified by proteins with moonlighting function. The specialized organelles still perform pan-cellular functions but in a cell type-specific mode, as discussed here for centrosomes, mitochondria, vesicles, and other organelles. These can serve as regulatory hubs for the storage and transport of specific and functionally important regulators. In this way, they can control cell differentiation, plasticity, and survival. We further include examples highlighting the relevance for disease and propose to examine organelles in many more cell types for their possible differences with functional relevance.

Abstract
Although it has been known for decades that lysosomes are central for degradation and recycling in the cell, their pivotal role as nutrient sensing signaling hubs has recently become of central interest. Since lysosomes are highly dynamic and in constant change regarding content and intracellular position, fusion/fission events allow communication between organelles in the cell, as well as cell-to-cell communication via exocytosis of lysosomal content and release of extracellular vesicles. Lysosomes also mediate different forms of regulated cell death by permeabilization of the lysosomal membrane and release of their content to the cytosol. In cancer cells, lysosomal biogenesis and autophagy are increased to support the increased metabolism and allow growth even under nutrient- and oxygen-poor conditions. Tumor cells also induce exocytosis of lysosomal content to the extracellular space to promote invasion and metastasis. However, due to the enhanced lysosomal function, cancer cells are often more susceptible to lysosomal membrane permeabilization, providing an alternative strategy to induce cell death. This review summarizes the current knowledge of cancer-associated alterations in lysosomal structure and function and illustrates how lysosomal exocytosis and release of extracellular vesicles affect disease progression. We focus on functional differences depending on lysosomal localization and the regulation of intracellular transport, and lastly provide insight how new therapeutic strategies can exploit the power of the lysosome and improve cancer treatment.

Abstract
The endolysosomal system specializes in degrading cellular components and is crucial to maintaining homeostasis and adapting rapidly to metabolic and environmental cues. Cells of the immune system exploit this network to process antigens or promote cell death by secreting lysosome-related vesicles. In B lymphocytes, lysosomes are harnessed to facilitate the extraction of antigens and to promote their processing into peptides for presentation to T cells, critical steps to mount protective high-affinity antibody responses. Intriguingly, lysosomal vesicles are now considered important signaling units within cells and also display secretory functions by releasing their content to the extracellular space. In this review, we focus on how B cells use pathways involved in the intracellular trafficking, secretion, and function of endolysosomes to promote adaptive immune responses. A basic understanding of such mechanisms poses an interesting frontier for the development of therapeutic strategies in the context of cancer and autoimmune diseases.

Abstract
Tumor cells and surrounding immune cells undergo metabolic reprogramming, leading to an acidic tumor microenvironment. However, it is unclear how tumor cells adapt to this acidic stress during tumor progression. Here we show that carnosine, a mobile buffering metabolite that accumulates under hypoxia in tumor cells, regulates intracellular pH homeostasis and drives lysosome-dependent tumor immune evasion. A previously unrecognized isoform of carnosine synthase, CARNS2, promotes carnosine synthesis under hypoxia. Carnosine maintains intracellular pH (pHi) homeostasis by functioning as a mobile proton carrier to accelerate cytosolic H+ mobility and release, which in turn controls lysosomal subcellular distribution, acidification and activity. Furthermore, by maintaining lysosomal activity, carnosine facilitates nuclear transcription factor X-box binding 1 (NFX1) degradation, triggering galectin-9 and T-cell-mediated immune escape and tumorigenesis. These findings indicate an unconventional mechanism for pHi regulation in cancer cells and demonstrate how lysosome contributes to immune evasion, thus providing a basis for development of combined therapeutic strategies against hepatocellular carcinoma that exploit disrupted pHi homeostasis with immune checkpoint blockade.

Abstract
The characterization of the structural and functional organization of eukaryotic cells has revealed the membrane compartments and machinery required for vesicular protein transport. Most proteins essential for intercellular communication contain an N-terminal signal sequence enabling them to be incorporated into the biosynthetic or conventional secretory pathway, in which proteins are sequentially transported through the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the Golgi apparatus. However, major research studies have shown the existence of alternative secretory routes that are independent of the ER-Golgi and designated as unconventional secretory pathways. These pathways involve a large number of players that may divert specific compartments from their primary function in favor of secretory roles. The comprehensive description of these processes is therefore of utmost importance to unveil how proteins secreted through these alternative pathways control cell homeostasis or contribute to disease development.

Abstract
Cells sense physical forces and convert them into electrical or chemical signals, a process known as mechanotransduction. Whereas extensive studies focus on mechanotransduction at the plasma membrane, little is known about whether and how intracellular organelles sense mechanical force and the physiological functions of organellar mechanosensing. Here we identify the Drosophila TMEM63 (DmTMEM63) ion channel as an intrinsic mechanosensor of the lysosome, a major degradative organelle. Endogenous DmTMEM63 proteins localize to lysosomes, mediate lysosomal mechanosensitivity and modulate lysosomal morphology and function. Tmem63 mutant flies exhibit impaired lysosomal degradation, synaptic loss, progressive motor deficits and early death, with some of these mutant phenotypes recapitulating symptoms of TMEM63-associated human diseases. Importantly, mouse TMEM63A mediates lysosomal mechanosensitivity in Neuro-2a cells, indicative of functional conservation in mammals. Our findings reveal DmTMEM63 channel function in lysosomes and its physiological roles in vivo and provide a molecular basis to explore the mechanosensitive process in subcellular organelles.

Oocytes are among the longest-lived cells in the body and need to preserve their cytoplasm to support proper embryonic development. Protein aggregation is a major threat for intracellular homeostasis in long-lived cells. How oocytes cope with protein aggregation during their extended life is unknown. Here, we find that mouse oocytes accumulate protein aggregates in specialized compartments that we named endolysosomal vesicular assemblies (ELVAs). Combining live-cell imaging, electron microscopy, and proteomics, we found that ELVAs are non-membrane-bound compartments composed of endolysosomes, autophagosomes, and proteasomes held together by a protein matrix formed by RUFY1. Functional assays revealed that in immature oocytes, ELVAs sequester aggregated proteins, including TDP-43, and degrade them upon oocyte maturation. Inhibiting degradative activity in ELVAs leads to the accumulation of protein aggregates in the embryo and is detrimental for embryo survival. Thus, ELVAs represent a strategy to safeguard protein homeostasis in long-lived cells.

Abstract
Hyperactive TLR7 signaling has long been appreciated as driver of autoimmune disease in mouse models. Recently, gain-of-function mutations in TLR7 were identified as a monogenic cause of human lupus. TLR7 is an intracellular transmembrane receptor, sensing RNA breakdown products within late endosomes. Here, we show that endosome dysfunction leads to unrestricted TLR7 signaling and is associated with human lupus. The late endosomal BORC complex together with the small GTPase Arl8b controls intracellular TLR7 levels by regulating receptor turnover. This requires a direct interaction between the TLR7-associated trafficking factor Unc93b1 and Arl8b. We identified an UNC93B1 mutation in a patient with childhood-onset lupus, which results in reduced BORC interaction and endosomal TLR7 accumulation. Therefore, a failure to control TLR7 turnover is sufficient to break immunological tolerance to nucleic acids. Our results highlight the importance of an intact endomembrane system in preventing pathological TLR7 signaling and autoimmune disease.

Abstract
Phagocytes promptly resolve ingested targets to replenish lysosomes and maintain their responsiveness. The resolution process requires that degradative hydrolases, solute transporters, and proteins involved in lipid traffic are delivered and made active in phagolysosomes. It also involves extensive membrane remodeling. We report that cation channels that localize to phagolysosomes were essential for resolution. Specifically, the conductance of Na+ by two-pore channels (TPCs) and the presence of a Na+ gradient between the phagolysosome lumen and the cytosol were critical for the controlled release of membrane tension that permits deformation of the limiting phagolysosome membrane. In turn, membrane deformation was a necessary step to efficiently transport the cholesterol extracted from cellular targets, permeabilizing them to hydrolases. These results place TPCs as regulators of endomembrane remodeling events that precede target degradation in cases when the target is bound by a cholesterol-containing membrane. The findings may help to explain lipid metabolism dysfunction and autophagic flux impairment reported in TPC KO mice and establish stepwise regulation to the resolution process that begins with lysis of the target.

Abstract
In cells, organelles are distributed nonrandomly to regulate cells' physiological and disease-associated processes. Based on their morphology, position within the cell, and contacts with other organelles, they exert different biological functions. Endo-lysosomes are critical cell metabolism and nutrient-sensing regulators modulating cell growth and cellular adaptation in response to nutrient availability. Their spatial distribution is intimately linked to their function. In this review, we will discuss the role of endolysosomes under physiological conditions and in the context of cancer progression, with a special focus on their morphology, the molecular mechanisms determining their subcellular position, and the contacts they form with other organelles. We aim to highlight the relationship between cell architecture and cell function and its impact on maintaining organismal homeostasis.

Abstract
Despite years of study and major research advances over the past 50 years, atherosclerotic diseases continue to rank as the leading global cause of death. Accumulation of cholesterol within the vascular wall remains the main problem and represents one of the early steps in the development of atherosclerotic lesions. There is a complex relationship between vesicular cholesterol transport and atherosclerosis, and abnormalities in cholesterol trafficking can contribute to the development and progression of the lesions. The dysregulation of vesicular cholesterol transport and lysosomal function fosters the buildup of cholesterol within various intracytoplasmic compartments, including lysosomes and lipid droplets. This, in turn, promotes the hallmark formation of foam cells, a defining feature of early atherosclerosis. Multiple cellular processes, encompassing endocytosis, exocytosis, intracellular trafficking, and autophagy, play crucial roles in influencing foam cell formation and atherosclerotic plaque stability. In this review, we highlight recent advances in the understanding of the intricate mechanisms of vesicular cholesterol transport and its relationship with atherosclerosis and discuss the importance of understanding these mechanisms in developing strategies to prevent or treat this prevalent cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
Lysosomes help maintain cellular proteostasis, and defects in lysosomal positioning and function can cause disease, including neurodegenerative disorders. The spatiotemporal distribution of lysosomes is regulated by small GTPases including Rabs, which are activated by guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs). DENN domain proteins are the largest family of Rab GEFs. Using a cell-based assay, we screened DENND6A, a member of the DENN domain protein family against all known Rabs and identified it as a potential GEF for 20 Rabs, including Rab34. Here, we demonstrate that DENND6A activates Rab34, which recruits a RILP/dynein complex to lysosomes, promoting lysosome retrograde transport. Further, we identify DENND6A as an effector of Arl8b, a major regulatory GTPase on lysosomes. We demonstrate that Arl8b recruits DENND6A to peripheral lysosomes to activate Rab34 and initiate retrograde transport, regulating nutrient-dependent lysosomal juxtanuclear repositioning. Loss of DENND6A impairs autophagic flux. Our findings support a model whereby Arl8b/DENND6A/Rab34-dependent lysosomal retrograde trafficking controls autophagy.

Abstract
The degeneration of axon terminals before the soma, referred to as "dying back", is a feature of Parkinson's disease (PD). Axonal assays are needed to model early PD pathogenesis as well as identify protective therapeutics. We hypothesized that defects in axon lysosomal trafficking as well as injury repair might be important contributing factors to "dying back" pathology in PD. Since primary human PD neurons are inaccessible, we developed assays to quantify axonal trafficking and injury repair using induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived neurons with LRRK2 G2019S, which is one of the most common known PD mutations, and isogenic controls. We observed a subtle axonal trafficking phenotype that was partially rescued by a LRRK2 inhibitor. Mutant LRRK2 neurons showed increased phosphorylated Rab10-positive lysosomes, and lysosomal membrane damage increased LRRK2-dependent Rab10 phosphorylation. Neurons with mutant LRRK2 showed a transient increase in lysosomes at axotomy injury sites. This was a pilot study that used two patient-derived lines to develop its methodology; we observed subtle phenotypes that might correlate with heterogeneity in LRRK2-PD patients. Further analysis using additional iPSC lines is needed. Therefore, our axonal lysosomal assays can potentially be used to characterize early PD pathogenesis and test possible therapeutics.

Abstract
Lysosomes are active sites to integrate cellular metabolism and signal transduction. A collection of proteins associated with the lysosome mediate these metabolic and signaling functions. Both lysosomal metabolism and lysosomal signaling have been linked to longevity regulation; however, how lysosomes adjust their protein composition to accommodate this regulation remains unclear. Using deep proteomic profiling, we systemically profiled lysosome-associated proteins linked with four different longevity mechanisms. We discovered the lysosomal recruitment of AMP-activated protein kinase and nucleoporin proteins and their requirements for longevity in response to increased lysosomal lipolysis. Through comparative proteomic analyses of lysosomes from different tissues and labeled with different markers, we further elucidated lysosomal heterogeneity across tissues as well as the increased enrichment of the Ragulator complex on Cystinosin-positive lysosomes. Together, this work uncovers lysosomal proteome heterogeneity across multiple scales and provides resources for understanding the contribution of lysosomal protein dynamics to signal transduction, organelle crosstalk, and organism longevity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND mTORC2 is a critical regulator of cytoskeleton organization, cell proliferation, and cancer cell survival. Activated mTORC2 induces maximal activation of Akt by phosphorylation of Ser-473, but regulation of Akt activity and signaling crosstalk upon growth factor stimulation are still unclear. RESULTS We identified that NUAK1 regulates growth factor-dependent activation of Akt by two mechanisms. NUAK1 interacts with mTORC2 components and regulates mTORC2-dependent activation of Akt by controlling lysosome positioning and mTOR association with this organelle. A second mechanism involves NUAK1 directly phosphorylating Akt at Ser-473. The effect of NUAK1 correlated with a growth factor-dependent activation of specific Akt substrates. NUAK1 induced the Akt-dependent phosphorylation of FOXO1/3a (Thr-24/Thr-32) but not of TSC2 (Thr-1462). According to a subcellular compartmentalization that could explain NUAK1's differential effect on the Akt substrates, we found that NUAK1 is associated with early endosomes but not with plasma membrane, late endosomes, or lysosomes. NUAK1 was required for the Akt/FOXO1/3a axis, regulating p21CIP1, p27KIP1, and FoxM1 expression and cancer cell survival upon EGFR stimulation. Pharmacological inhibition of NUAK1 potentiated the cell death effect induced by Akt or mTOR pharmacological blockage. Analysis of human tissue data revealed that NUAK1 expression positively correlates with EGFR expression and Akt Ser-473 phosphorylation in several human cancers. CONCLUSIONS Our results showed that NUAK1 kinase controls mTOR subcellular localization and induces Akt phosphorylation, demonstrating that NUAK1 regulates the growth factor-dependent activation of Akt signaling. Therefore, targeting NUAK1, or co-targeting it with Akt or mTOR inhibitors, may be effective in cancers with hyperactivated Akt signaling.

Abstract
Excessive production and accumulation of amyloid-beta (Aβ) in the brain are one of the hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Although oxidative stress is known to trigger and promote the progression of AD, the molecular relationship between oxidative stress and Aβ production is not yet fully understood. In this study, we demonstrate that microtubule acetylation induced by oxidative stress plays a critical role in Aβ production and secretion by altering the subcellular distribution of Aβ precursor protein (APP)-containing lysosomal vesicles. Under oxidative stress, both H4-APPSwe/Ind and HEK293T-APPSwe/Ind cell lines showed increased microtubule acetylation and Aβ secretion. Knockdown (KD) of alpha-tubulin N-acetyltransferase 1 (ATAT1) by using a lentiviral shRNA not only inhibited the generation of intermediate APP fragments, such as β-CTF and AICD, but also suppressed Aβ secretion. Oxidative stress promoted the dispersion of LAMP1-positive vesicles to the periphery of the cell through microtubule acetylation, leading to the formation of neutralized lysosomal vesicles (NLVs), which was inhibited by ATAT1 KD. Treatment of the cells with the dynein ATPase inhibitor EHNA or downregulation of LIS1, a regulator of dynein-mediated intracellular transport, increased the peripheral localization of NLVs and promoted Aβ secretion, whereas KD of ADP ribosylation factor like GTPase 8B showed the opposite result. ATAT1 KD in the hippocampal region of the 5×FAD AD mouse model also showed significant reductions in Aβ plaque accumulation and memory loss. Taken together, these findings suggest that oxidative stress-induced microtubule acetylation promotes the peripheral localization of lysosomal vesicles to form NLVs, thereby enhancing Aβ secretion.

Abstract
In hepatocytes, the Wilson disease protein ATP7B resides on the trans-Golgi network (TGN) and traffics to peripheral lysosomes to export excess intracellular copper through lysosomal exocytosis. We found that in basal copper or even upon copper chelation, a significant amount of ATP7B persists in the endolysosomal compartment of hepatocytes but not in non-hepatic cells. These ATP7B-harbouring lysosomes lie in close proximity of ~10 nm to the TGN. ATP7B constitutively distributes itself between the sub-domain of the TGN with a lower pH and the TGN-proximal lysosomal compartments. The presence of ATP7B on TGN-lysosome colocalising sites upon Golgi disruption suggested a possible exchange of ATP7B directly between the TGN and its proximal lysosomes. Manipulating lysosomal positioning significantly alters the localisation of ATP7B in the cell. Contrary to previous understanding, we found that upon copper chelation in a copper-replete hepatocyte, ATP7B is not retrieved back to TGN from peripheral lysosomes; rather, ATP7B recycles to these TGN-proximal lysosomes to initiate the next cycle of copper transport. We report a hitherto unknown copper-independent lysosomal localisation of ATP7B and the importance of TGN-proximal lysosomes but not TGN as the terminal acceptor organelle of ATP7B in its retrograde pathway.

Abstract
ASM deficiency in Niemann-Pick disease type A results in aberrant cellular accumulation of sphingomyelin, neuroinflammation, neurodegeneration, and early death. There is no available treatment because enzyme replacement therapy cannot surmount the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Nanocarriers (NCs) targeted across the BBB via transcytosis might help; yet, whether ASM deficiency alters transcytosis remains poorly characterized. We investigated this using model NCs targeted to intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), transferrin receptor (TfR), or plasmalemma vesicle-associated protein-1 (PV1) in ASM-normal vs. ASM-deficient BBB models. Disease differentially changed the expression of all three targets, with ICAM-1 becoming the highest. Apical binding and uptake of anti-TfR NCs and anti-PV1 NCs were unaffected by disease, while anti-ICAM-1 NCs had increased apical binding and decreased uptake rate, resulting in unchanged intracellular NCs. Additionally, anti-ICAM-1 NCs underwent basolateral reuptake after transcytosis, whose rate was decreased by disease, as for apical uptake. Consequently, disease increased the effective transcytosis rate for anti-ICAM-1 NCs. Increased transcytosis was also observed for anti-PV1 NCs, while anti-TfR NCs remained unaffected. A fraction of each formulation trafficked to endothelial lysosomes. This was decreased in disease for anti-ICAM-1 NCs and anti-PV1 NCs, agreeing with opposite transcytosis changes, while it increased for anti-TfR NCs. Overall, these variations in receptor expression and NC transport resulted in anti-ICAM-1 NCs displaying the highest absolute transcytosis in the disease condition. Furthermore, these results revealed that ASM deficiency can differently alter these processes depending on the particular target, for which this type of study is key to guide the design of therapeutic NCs.

Abstract
Lysosomes serve dual antagonistic functions in cells by mediating anabolic growth signaling and the catabolic turnover of macromolecules. How these janus-faced activities are regulated in response to cellular nutrient status is poorly understood. We show here that lysosome morphology and function are reversibly controlled by a nutrient-regulated signaling lipid switch that triggers the conversion between peripheral motile mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) signaling-active and static mTORC1-inactive degradative lysosomes clustered at the cell center. Starvation-triggered relocalization of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI(4)P)-metabolizing enzymes reshapes the lysosomal surface proteome to facilitate lysosomal proteolysis and to repress mTORC1 signaling. Concomitantly, lysosomal phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PI(3)P), which marks motile signaling-active lysosomes in the cell periphery, is erased. Interference with this PI(3)P/PI(4)P lipid switch module impairs the adaptive response of cells to altering nutrient supply. Our data unravel a key function for lysosomal phosphoinositide metabolism in rewiring organellar membrane dynamics in response to cellular nutrient status.

Abstract
Lipid droplets (LDs) play a crucial role in maintaining cellular lipid balance by storing and delivering lipids as needed. However, the intricate lipolytic pathways involved in LD turnover remain poorly described, hindering our comprehension of lipid catabolism and related disorders. Here, we show a function of the small GTPase ARL8B in mediating LD turnover in lysosomes. ARL8B-GDP localizes to LDs, while ARL8-GTP predominantly favors lysosomes. GDP binding induces a conformation with an exposed N-terminal amphipathic helix, enabling ARL8B to bind to LDs. By associating with LDs and lysosomes, and with its property to form a heterotypic complex, ARL8B mediates LD-lysosome contacts and efficient lipid transfer between these organelles. In human macrophages, this ARL8B-dependent LD turnover mechanism appears as the major lipolytic pathway. Our finding opens exciting possibilities for understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying LD degradation and its potential implications for inflammatory disorders.

Abstract
Lysosomes function as a primary site for catabolism and cellular signaling. These organelles digest a variety of substrates received through endocytosis, secretion and autophagy with the help of resident acid hydrolases. Lysosomal enzymes are folded in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and trafficked to lysosomes via Golgi and endocytic routes. The inability of hydrolase trafficking due to mutations or mutations in its receptor or cofactor leads to cargo accumulation (storage) in lysosomes, resulting in lysosome storage disorder (LSD). In Gaucher disease (GD), the lysosomes accumulate glucosylceramide because of low β-glucocerebrosidase (β-GC) activity that causes lysosome enlargement/dysfunction. We hypothesize that improving the trafficking of mutant β-GC to lysosomes may improve the lysosome function in GD. RNAi screen using high throughput based β-GC activity assay followed by reporter trafficking assay utilizing β-GC-mCherry led to the identification of nine potential phosphatases. Depletion of these phosphatases in HeLa cells enhanced the β-GC activity by increasing the folding and trafficking of Gaucher mutants to the lysosomes. Consistently, the lysosomes in primary fibroblasts from GD patients restored their β-GC activity upon the knockdown of these phosphatases. Thus, these studies provide evidence that altering phosphatome activity is an alternative therapeutic strategy to restore the lysosome function in GD.

Abstract
Lysosomal pH setpoint and H+ homeostasis is key to the lysosome's functions. The Parkinson's disease-risk protein TMEM175, originally identified as lysosomal K+ channel, works as a H+ -activated H+ channel and discharges the lysosomal H+ store when it is hyper-acidified. Yang et al. indicate that TMEM175 is permeable for both K+ and H+ in the same pore and charges the lysosome with H+ under certain conditions. The charge and discharge functions are under regulation of the lysosomal matrix and glycocalyx layer. Their presented work indicates that TMEM175 performs as a multi-functional channel regulating lysosomal pH in response to physiological conditions.

Abstract
Proteotoxic stress causes profound endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane remodeling into a perinuclear quality control compartment (ERQC) for the degradation of misfolded proteins. Subsequent return to homeostasis involves clearance of the ERQC by endolysosomes. However, the factors that control perinuclear ER integrity and dynamics remain unclear. Here, we identify vimentin intermediate filaments as perinuclear anchors for the ER and endolysosomes. We show that perinuclear vimentin filaments engage the ER-embedded RING finger protein 26 (RNF26) at the C-terminus of its RING domain. This restricts RNF26 to perinuclear ER subdomains and enables the corresponding spatial retention of endolysosomes through RNF26-mediated membrane contact sites (MCS). We find that both RNF26 and vimentin are required for the perinuclear coalescence of the ERQC and its juxtaposition with proteolytic compartments, which facilitates efficient recovery from ER stress via the Sec62-mediated ER-phagy pathway. Collectively, our findings reveal a scaffolding mechanism that underpins the spatiotemporal integration of organelles during cellular proteostasis.

Mulligan RJ, Winckler B. Regulation of Endosomal Trafficking by Rab7 and Its Effectors in Neurons: Clues from Charcot-Marie-Tooth 2B Disease. Biomolecules 2023; 13:1399. [PMID: 37759799 PMCID: PMC10527268 DOI: 10.3390/biom13091399] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2023] [Revised: 09/09/2023] [Accepted: 09/14/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Intracellular endosomal trafficking controls the balance between protein degradation and synthesis, i.e., proteostasis, but also many of the cellular signaling pathways that emanate from activated growth factor receptors after endocytosis. Endosomal trafficking, sorting, and motility are coordinated by the activity of small GTPases, including Rab proteins, whose function as molecular switches direct activity at endosomal membranes through effector proteins. Rab7 is particularly important in the coordination of the degradative functions of the pathway. Rab7 effectors control endosomal maturation and the properties of late endosomal and lysosomal compartments, such as coordination of recycling, motility, and fusion with downstream compartments. The spatiotemporal regulation of endosomal receptor trafficking is particularly challenging in neurons because of their enormous size, their distinct intracellular domains with unique requirements (dendrites vs. axons), and their long lifespans as postmitotic, differentiated cells. In Charcot-Marie-Tooth 2B disease (CMT2B), familial missense mutations in Rab7 cause alterations in GTPase cycling and trafficking, leading to an ulcero-mutilating peripheral neuropathy. The prevailing hypothesis to account for CMT2B pathologies is that CMT2B-associated Rab7 alleles alter endocytic trafficking of the neurotrophin NGF and its receptor TrkA and, thereby, disrupt normal trophic signaling in the peripheral nervous system, but other Rab7-dependent pathways are also impacted. Here, using TrkA as a prototypical endocytic cargo, we review physiologic Rab7 effector interactions and control in neurons. Since neurons are among the largest cells in the body, we place particular emphasis on the temporal and spatial regulation of endosomal sorting and trafficking in neuronal processes. We further discuss the current findings in CMT2B mutant Rab7 models, the impact of mutations on effector interactions or balance, and how this dysregulation may confer disease.
