Morgan AJ, Yuan Y, Patel S, Galione A. Does lysosomal rupture evoke Ca 2+ release? A question of pores and stores. Cell Calcium 2019; 86:102139.

Abstract
Lysosomotropic agents have been used to permeabilize lysosomes and thereby implicate these organelles in diverse cellular processes. Since lysosomes are Ca2+ stores, this rupturing action, particularly that induced by GPN, has also been used to rapidly release Ca2+ from lysosomes. However, a recent study has questioned the mechanism of action of GPN and concluded that, acutely, it does not permeabilize lysosomes but releases Ca2+ directly from the ER instead. We therefore appraise these provocative findings in the context of the existing literature. We suggest that further work is required to unequivocally rule out lysosomes as contributors to GPN-evoked Ca2+ signals.

Abstract
Transscleral delivery has emerged as an attractive method for treating retinal disorders because it offers localized delivery of drugs as a less invasive method compared to intravitreal administration. Numerous novel transscleral drug delivery systems ranging from microparticles to implants have been reported. However, transscleral delivery is currently not as clinically effective as intravitreal delivery in the treatment of retinal diseases. Transscleral drug delivery systems require drugs to permeate through several layers of ocular tissue (sclera, Bruch's membrane-choroid, retinal pigment epithelium) to reach the neuroretina. As a result, a steep drug concentration gradient from the sclera to the retina is established, and very low concentrations of drug are detected in the retina. This steep gradient is created by the barriers to transport that hinder drug molecules from successfully reaching the retina. A review of the literature reveals 3 types of barriers hindering transscleral drug delivery: static, dynamic and metabolic. While static barriers have been examined in detail, the literature on dynamic and metabolic barriers is lacking. These barriers must be investigated further to gain a more complete understanding of the transport barriers involved in transscleral drug delivery.

Abstract
Unlike lysosomal soluble proteins, few lysosomal membrane proteins have been identified. Rat liver lysosomes were purified by centrifugation on a Nycodenz density gradient. The most hydrophobic proteins were extracted from the lysosome membrane preparation and were identified by MS. We focused our attention on a protein of approx. 40 kDa, p40, which contains seven to ten putative transmembrane domains and four lysosomal consensus sorting motifs in its sequence. Knowing that preparations of lysosomes obtained by centrifugation always contain contaminant membranes, we combined biochemical and morphological methods to analyse the subcellular localization of p40. The results of subcellular fractionation of mouse liver homogenates validate the lysosomal residence of p40. In particular, a density shift of lysosomes induced by Triton WR-1339 similarly affected the distributions of p40 and beta-galactosidase, a lysosomal marker protein. We confirmed by fluorescence microscopy on eukaryotic cells transfected with p40 or p40-GFP (green fluorescent protein) constructs that p40 is localized in lysosomes. A first molecular characterization of p40 in transfected Cos-7 cells revealed that it is an unglycosylated protein tightly associated with membranes. Taken together, our results strongly support the hypothesis that p40 is an authentic lysosomal membrane protein.

Abstract
The membrane of the lysosome contains substrate-specific porters for a wide range of metabolites. Their physiological role is in promoting the efflux of the products of intralysosomal catabolism. With few exceptions, the specificity of these porters makes them unlikely candidates for the translocation of xenobiotics across the lysosome membrane. Where efflux from the lysosome is possible, it is likely to be accomplished by passive diffusion. Experimental studies on passive diffusion across the lysosome membrane have shown that its characteristics are similar to those of other biological membranes. Ease of permeation decreases with increasing hydrophilicity. Macromolecules and some highly hydrophilic molecules as small as sucrose are effectively non-permeant. The notional hydrogen-bonding capacity of molecules (an inverse correlate of oil:water partition coefficient) has been found a good predictor of permeance. Predictions of ease of permeation across lysosome membranes is of value when drug delivery strategies are contemplated that involve a drug-conjugate reaching the lysosome compartment and drug release there by the lysosomal enzymes. These strategies will be unsuccessful if the drug is unable to leave the lysosome and reach the cellular sites where its pharmacological action is required.

Abstract
Studies using lysosomal membrane vesicles have suggested that efflux of the sulfate that results from lysosomal glycosaminoglycan degradation is carrier-mediated. In this study, glycosaminoglycan degradation and sulfate efflux were examined using cultured skin fibroblasts and lysosomes deficient in the lysosomal enzyme N-acetylgalactosamine-4-sulfatase. Such fibroblasts store dermatan sulfate lysosomally, which could be labelled biosynthetically with Na2(35)SO4. The addition of recombinant N-acetylgalactosamine-4-sulfatase to the media of 35S labelled fibroblasts degraded up to 82% of the stored dermatan [35S] sulfate over a subsequent 96 h chase and released inorganic [35S] sulfate into the medium. In the presence of 4-acetamido-4'-isothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (SITS), sulfate was reused to a minor extent in newly synthesized proteoglycan. Isolated granules from recombinant enzyme supplemented fibroblasts degraded stored dermatan [35S]sulfate to sulfate which was rapidly released into the medium at a rate that was reduced by the extra-lysosomal presence of the lysosomal sulfate transport inhibitors SITS, Na2SO4 and Na2MoO4. SITS also inhibited dermatan sulfate turnover, although it had no effect on the action of purified recombinant enzyme in vitro. These data imply that sulfate clearance occurred concomitantly with dermatan sulfate turnover in the lysosome even at high substrate loading, and that lysosome-derived sulfate, while available, is reutilized minimally in synthetic pathways.

Abstract
When a light mitochondrial fraction (L fraction) of rat liver is incubated in the presence of an oxygen free radical generating system (xanthine-xanthine oxidase), the free activity of N-acetylglucosaminidase (NAGase) increases as a result of the deterioration of the lysosomal membrane. Various flavonoids are able to prevent this phenomenon, others are ineffective. Comparative activity studies suggest the importance of the presence of two OH groups in orthosubstitution in the B ring and of an OH in the 3 position. Flavan-type flavonoids behave like their related flavonoids; d-catechin also opposes lysosome disruption. Kaempferol, quercetin, 7,8-dihydroxyflavone and d-catechin inhibit lipoperoxidation occurring in an L fraction incubated with the xanthine oxidase system as ascertained by malondialdehyde (MDA) production. For kaempferol and quercetin, such an inhibition parallels the prevention of NAGase release; this is not the case for the two other compounds where inhibition of NAGase release takes place at a flavonoid concentration lower than that required to oppose MDA production. Morphological observations performed on purified lysosomes confirm the biochemical results. Some flavonoids are also able to prevent release of NAGase caused by the incubation of an L fraction in isoosmotic glucose. Only flavone and hydroxyflavones are effective. It is proposed that the protective effect of flavonoids on lysosomes subjected to oxygen free radicals does not only originate from their scavenger and antilipoperoxidant properties; a more direct action on lysosomal membrane making it more resistant to oxidative aggression has to be considered. The prevention by some flavonoids of lysosome osmotic disruption in isoosmotic glucose could be the result of an inhibition of glucose translocation through the lysosomal membrane.

Abstract
Lysosomes constitute only 4% of the intracellular volume of a normal human fibroblast. When human fibroblasts are incubated for 2-5 min with 20 microM [35S]cystine in Krebs-Ringer phosphate solution at pH 7.4, a minimum of 50-60% of the total radioactivity taken up by the cells is found sequestered into the lysosomal compartment in the form of cysteine. A lysosomal transport system, highly specific for cysteine, appears to facilitate this rapid lysosomal cysteine sequestration. Time courses of [35S]cysteine uptake into isolated, Percoll-purified fibroblast lysosomes at pH 7.0 and 37 degrees C are linear for the first 4-5 min and attain a steady state by 10 min. Lysosomal cysteine uptake displays a Km of 0.05 mM at pH 7.0 and an activation energy of 21 kcal/mol, corresponding to a Q10 of 3.2. The role of this transport system in delivering cysteine into lysosomes is supported by its pH curve showing a slow rate of cysteine transport at the acidic pHs between 5 and 6, but then increasing sevenfold between pH 6 and 7.5 to be maximally active near the cytosolic pH of 7. Carrier mediation by this lysosomal transport route demonstrates a high specificity for cysteine as indicated by the inability of the following amino acids to significantly inhibit at 5 mM the lysosomal uptake of 0.035 mM [35S]L-cysteine: ala, ser, pro, val, gly, homocysteine, D- or L-penicillamine, arg, asp, or leu. Similarly, D-cysteine and beta-mercaptopropionate were poor inhibitors, suggesting that both the L-isomer and alpha-amino group of cysteine appear to be required for recognition by the cysteine-specific transport system. In contrast, cysteamine, which lacks an alpha-carboxyl group, was able to strongly inhibit lysosomal cysteine uptake. The physiological importance of this cysteine-specific lysosomal transport system may be to aid lysosomal proteolysis by delivering cysteine into the lysosomal compartment to (a) maintain the catalytic activity of the thiol-dependent lysosomal enzymes and (b) break protein disulfide bridges at susceptible linkages, thereby allowing proteins to unfold, facilitating their degradation.

Abstract
We have investigated the effect on the osmotic activation of rat liver lysosomes, by glucose penetration, of different substances known to inhibit the glucose transport through the plasma membrane. Diethylstilbestrol is the most efficient, particularly when purified lysosomes are used. It has no effect on osmotic activation induced by hypo-osmotic sucrose or by iso-osmotic KCl. It is proposed that diethylstilbestrol reacts with specific sites involved in the glucose translocation through the lysosomal membrane. These sites could not be identified by binding experiments, presumably owing to the considerable unspecific binding of the compound to the membrane.

Abstract
Uptake of [U-14C]sorbitol was studied in astrogliarich rat primary cultures. Initial rate of sorbitol uptake is proportional to sorbitol concentration between 20 microM and 400 mM. Sorbitol transport is not inhibited by glucose, fructose, and a variety of structurally related polyols, or by cytochalasin B, an inhibitor of glucose transport. Phloretin, phlorizin, filipin, and n-hexanol, all compounds that alter the properties of biological membranes, and the sulfhydryl reagent p-chloromercuribenzoate inhibit sorbitol uptake to various degrees. Variation in the concentrations of extracellular Na+ and K+ does not affect transfer of sorbitol across the cell membrane. It is concluded that sorbitol is taken up into glial cells by a diffusion process, not involving a carrier and probably not through the lipid bilayer, but through a proteinaceous channel-like structure.

Abstract
An osmotic-protection method has been used to study the permeability of rat liver lysosomes to 43 organic non-electrolytes of formula weights ranging from 62 to 1000. A lysosome-rich centrifugal fraction of rat liver homogenate was resuspended in an unbuffered 0.25 M solution of test solute, pH 7.0, and incubated at 25 degrees C for 60 min. The free and total activities of 4-methylumbelliferyl N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase were measured after incubation for 0, 30 and 60 min. Three patterns of results were seen. In pattern A the percentage free activity remained low throughout the 60 min incubation, indicating little or no solute entry into the lysosomes. In pattern B, the percentage free activity was initially low, but rose substantially during the incubation, indicating solute entry. In pattern C there was not even initial osmotic protection, indicating very rapid solute entry. The rapidity of solute entry into the lysosomes showed no correlation with the formula weight, but a perfect inverse correlation with the hydrogen-bonding capacity of the solutes. The results, which can be used to predict the ability of further compounds to cross the lysosome membrane by unassisted diffusion, are discussed in the context of metabolite and drug release from lysosomes in vivo.

Abstract
A conflict exists in the literature concerning the mode of translocation of D-glucose and D-ribose across the lysosome membrane. The more rapid net uptake of ribose, when measured by the osmotic-protection technique, has been attributed either to its smaller size and lower hydrogen-bonding capacity, or to a lower affinity for a transport system shared by both sugars. The latency of acid beta-hexosaminidase in isolated rat liver lysosomes was measured after preincubation for periods up to 1 h in various solutions containing glucose and/or ribose, and in some cases sucrose. After confirmation of the superior osmotic protection afforded by glucose (than by ribose), it was shown that a solution 0.125 M in both glucose and ribose provided protection intermediate between that given by 0.25 M-glucose and that given by 0.25 M-ribose. This result is inconsistent with the common-carrier hypothesis.

Abstract
Lysosomal degradation of the carbohydrate portion of glycoproteins and glycosaminoglycans produces monosaccharides and sulphate, which must efflux from the lysosomes before re-entering biosynthetic pathways. We examined the degradation of glycoproteins and glycosaminoglycans by lysosomes isolated from cultured human diploid fibroblasts. Cells were grown for 24 h in medium containing [3H]glucosamine and [35S]sulphate. When lysosomes are isolated from these cells, they contain label primarily in macromolecules (glycoproteins and glycosaminoglycans). Glycoprotein degradation by isolated lysosomes was followed by measuring the release of tritiated sugars from macromolecules and efflux of these sugars from the organelles. Glycosaminoglycan degradation was monitored by the release of both tritiated sugars and [35S]sulphate. During macromolecule degradation, the total amounts of free [35S]sulphate, N-acetyl[3H]glucosamine and N-acetyl[3H]galactosamine found outside the lysosome parallels the amounts of these products released by degradation. The total degradation of glycoproteins and glycosaminoglycans by intact cultured cells was also examined. The lysosomal contribution to degradation was assessed by measuring inhibition by the lysosomotropic amine NH4Cl. After 48 h incubation, inhibition by NH4Cl exceeded 55% of glycoprotein and 72% of glycosaminoglycan degradation. Recycling of [3H]hexosamines and [35S]sulphate by intact cells was estimated by measuring the appearance of 'newly synthesized' radioactively labelled macromolecules in the medium. Sulphate does not appear to be appreciably recycled. N-Acetylglucosamine and N-acetylgalactosamine, on the other hand, are reutilized to a significant extent.

Abstract
Salla disease is a lysosomal storage disorder characterized by mental retardation and disturbed sialic acid metabolism. To study endogenous synthesis and breakdown of sialic acid, fibroblasts were incubated for 5 d in the presence and then in the absence of N-[3H]acetylmannosamine. Labeling of free sialic acid was 5-10 times higher in mutant than in normal cells. Radioactivity decreased in 4 d by 75% in normal but only by 30% in mutant fibroblasts. The labeling pattern was not normalized upon coculture of mutant and normal cells. To study the metabolism of extracellular sialic acid, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) was labeled in the sialic acid moiety (periodate-NaB3H4) or in the protein moiety (125I). Binding, internalization, lysosomal degradation, and exit of products of protein catabolism were similar in normal and mutant fibroblasts. Upon incubation with LDL labeled in the sialic acid moiety, mutant cells accumulated 2-3 times more free sialic acid radioactivity than normal fibroblasts, mostly in the lysosomal fraction. After a 24-h chase incubation, radioactivity in free sialic acid decreased by 70-80% in normal but only by 10-30% in mutant cells. In mutant fibroblasts, 40% of the radioactivity remained in lysosomes, whereas no labeled free sialic acid was detected in lysosomes from normal fibroblasts. We conclude that in Salla disease, fibroblast endogenous synthesis of sialic acid and lysosomal cleavage of exogenous glycoconjugates is normal, but free sialic acid cannot leave the lysosome. These findings suggest that the basic defect in Salla disease is deficient transport of free sialic acid through the lysosomal membrane.

Abstract
Purified rat liver lysosomes contained 5'-nucleotidase activity which was 92 +/- 2% [4]latent. This latency was lost in response to a permeant sugar at a similar rate to that of the lysosomal marker enzyme beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase indicating that the 5'-nucleotidase was genuinely located in the lysosome and not a plasma membrane contaminant. Lysosomal 5'-nucleotidase exhibited the following properties characteristic of ecto-5'-nucleotidase inhibition by specific polyclonal antibodies: binding to a monoclonal antibody; inhibition by 1 mmol/1 alpha beta-methylene ADP; immunoreactive subunits of 70 and 38 kDa. Lysosomes in addition contained immunoreactive species of intermediate molecular mass.

Abstract
This paper describes the stimulation of exodus of cystine from lysosome-rich granular fractions by potassium. Potassium permeability into lysosomes is low, but in the presence of an ionophore or permeable anion, the movement of K+ into lysosomes caused a large stimulation of cystine exodus. Lysosomal preparations from leucocytes of cystinotic patients, which lack carrier-mediated cystine transport, also manifested stimulation of cystine egress by valinomycin and K+. This suggests that potassium-dependent cystine egress involves a carrier different from that defective in cystinosis, or occurs through a non-carrier-mediated mechanism.

Abstract
Salla disease is a lysosomal storage disorder of unknown etiology, characterized biochemically by increased urinary excretion of N-acetylneuraminic acid. This compound has now been shown to occur in abnormally large amounts in liver and cultured skin fibroblasts from these patients. Quantification of N-acetylneuraminic acid was performed using a new gas-chromatography/mass spectrometric single-ion method which is sensitive and specific. No abnormalities in the activity of several enzymes involved in sialic acid metabolism (N-acetylneuraminate:pyruvate lyase, neuraminidase, CMP-N-acetylneuraminate N-acylneuraminohydrolase and CTP:N-acyl-neuraminate cytidylyltransferase) were demonstrable. A possible explanation for the defect is a malfunctioning active transport of N-acetylneuraminic acid across the lysosomal membrane.

Abstract
The effects of thiols on the breakdown of 125I-labelled insulin, albumin and formaldehyde-treated albumin by highly purified rat liver cathepsins B, D, H and L at pH 4.0 and 5.5 were studied. At both pH values degradation was strongly activated by the thiols cysteamine, cysteine, dithiothreitol, glutathione and 2-mercaptoethanol, and its rate increased with increasing thiol concentration. Preincubation of the protein substrates with 5 mM-glutathione did not affect concentration. Preincubation of the protein substrates with 5 mM-glutathione did not affect the rate of degradation by cathepsin D or L, and determination of free thiol groups after incubation of the proteins in the presence of glutathione but without cathepsin showed that their disulphide bonds were stable under the incubation conditions. Sephadex G-75 chromatography of the acid-soluble products of insulin digestion by cathepsin D or L suggested that thiols can reduce disulphide bonds in proteins after limited proteolysis. The resultant opening-up of the protein structure would lead to further proteolysis, so that the two processes (proteolysis and reduction) may act synergistically. By using the osmotic protection method it was shown that, at a physiological pH, cysteamine, and its oxidized form cystamine, can cross the lysosome membrane and thus may well be the physiological hydrogen donor for the reduction of disulphides in lysosomes. The results are discussed in relation to the lysosomal storage disease cystinosis.

Abstract
1. Golgi membrane vesicles, isolated from lactating-rat mammary gland and greatly enriched in galactosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.22), contained over 40 separate bands of protein, including some periodic acid)(Schiff-staining material and free thiol groups, when analysed by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. 2. The membrane lipids were enriched in phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine and unesterified cholesterol. 3. Membrane fluidity, as monitored by the fluorescence polarization of 1,6-diphenylhexa-1,3,5-triene, increased linearly over 5-37 degrees C. 4. The vesicle membranes were impermeable to lactose over a wide pH range, but admitted electrolytes of molecular weight below about 300. 5. These properties are discussed with respect to other cellular membranes and the secretion of milk products.

Abstract
The Golgi-membrane vesicles present in particulate preparations of lactating rat mammary gland were biosynthetically loaded with [14C]lactose. This lactose was effectively retained by particles sedimented after exposure to 0.25 M-disaccharide, but was partly lost after exposure to 0.25 M-glucose or other solutes of similar size. Loss of lactose was time-, concentration- and temperature-dependent and varied with the solute structure. This behaviour is ascribed to the presence of protein in the Golgi membrane, forming a specific carrier or channel that serves to supply glucose for lactose synthesis.

Abstract
1. The effects of sucrose and KCl on the loss of latency of lysosomal enzymes caused by incubation at 37 degrees C, pH 7.4, were examined by using Triton-filled lysosomes from rat liver and two fractions from livers of rats not injected with Triton. 2. After incubation, the percentage free activity of lysosomal enzymes was measured before and after cooling to 0 degrees C in order to determine the amount of latency lost at 37 degrees C without cooling and the additional amount lost on cooling the incubated lysosomes to 0 degrees C. 3. The latency that is lost without cooling is first decreased and then increased by increasing the osmotic strength of the incubation medium with KCl, or with sucrose in the presence of KCl. However, if the osmotic strength is increased with sucrose alone, loss of latency is decreased up to 0.25M-sucrose, but is increased only slightly at higher sucrose concentrations. Apparently the lysosome is permeated by hyperosmolar KCl but not by sucrose during incubation. 4. If the osmotic strength of the assay medium is increased with KCl, the loss of latency caused by incubation for 60 min in hyperosmolar KCl is repressed. Thus it appears that a KCl-permeated lysosome can be obtained which is relatively stable until exposure to lower osmolarities. 5. The loss of latency caused by cooling incubated lysosomes to 0 degrees C is largely eliminated if the osmotic strength of the medium in which the lysosomes are cooled is raised sufficiently with either sucrose or KCl. 6. Osmotic-fragility curves were obtained after incubation for 1 and 60 min at iso-osmoticity (0.2M-KCl or 0.25 M-sucrose). Although little loss of latency occurs at iso-osmoticity, lysosomes incubated for 60 min display greatly increased fragility on exposure to hypo-osmolar KCl, hypo-osmolar sucrose or hyperosmolar KCl. 7. It is suggested that permeability to KCl at 37 degrees C and the increase in fragility on exposure to hypo-osmolar conditions are both consequences of injury, probably from enzymic action, sustained by the lysosomal membrane during incubation at 37 degrees C.

Abstract
1. By the osmotic-protection method, the penetration of sugars through the rat liver lysosomal membranes was studied with a view of determining whether sugar uptake was by facilitated diffusion. 2. The following criteria for this type of transport were established: sugar specificity, the order of uptake being 2-deoxy-D-glucose less than D-glucose less than D-mannose less than D-galactose less than D-ribose less than 2-deoxy-D-ribose; stereospecificity, the uptake of L-glucose and L-ribose being 50% slower than their D-stereoisomers; inhibition by 1 MM-phlorrhizin and 1 M-cytochalastin B; competition between sugars for uptake, and a Q10 (rate difference over a 10 degrees C temperature range) for uptake of approx. 2.8. 3. It is proposed that sugar uptake into lysosomes from rat liver is by facilitated diffusion.

Abstract
The permeability of the lysosomal membrane to small anions and cations was studied at 37 degrees C and pH 7.0 in a lysosomal-mitochondrial fraction isolated from the liver of untreated rats. The extent of osmotic lysis following ion influx was used as a measure of ion permeancy. In order to preserve electroneutrality, anion influx was coupled to an influx of K+ in the presence of valinomycin, and cation influx was coupled to an efflux of H+ using the protonophore 3-tert-butyl-5,2'-dichloro-4'-nitrosalicilylanilide. Lysosomal lysis was monitored by observing the loss of latency of two lysosomal hydrolases. The order of permeability of the lysosomal membrane to anions was found to be SCN- greater than I- greater than CH3COO- greater than Cl- approximately Pi greater than SO24- and that to cations Cs+ greater than K+ greater than Na+ greater than H+. These orders are largely in agreement with the lyotropic series of anions and cations. The implications of these findings for the mechanism by means of which a low intralysosomal pH is produced and maintained are discussed.

Abstract
The latency of the alpha-glucosidase activity of intact rat liver lysosomes was studied by using four substrates (glycogen, maltose, p-nitrophenyl, alpha-glucoside, alpha-fluoroglucoside) at a range of substrate concentrations. The results indicate that the entire lysosome population is impermeable to glycogen and maltose, but a proportion of lysosomes are permeable to alpha-fluoroglucoside and a still higher proportion permeable to p-nitrophenyl alpha-glucoside. Incubation at 37 degrees C in an osmotically protected buffer of of pH 5.0 caused lysosomes to become permeable to previously impermeant substrates and ultimately to release their alpha-glucosidase into the medium. The latencies of lysosomal beta-glucosidase and beta-galactosidase were examined by using p-nitrophenyl beta-glucoside and beta-galactoside as substrates. The results indicate permeability properties to these substrates similar to that to p-nitrophenyl alpha-glucoside. On incubation in an osmotically protected buffer of pH 5, lysosomes progressively released their beta-galactosidase in soluble form, but beta-glucosidase remained attached to sedimentable material. Lysosomal beta-glucosidase was inhibited by 0.1% Triton X-100; alpha-glucosidase and beta-galactosidase were not inhibited.

Abstract
Preparations of radioactive lysosomes were obtained from mouse kidney after injection of radioactive iodine-labeled bovine ribonuclease. Stability of these lysosomes in various media was estimated from measurements of proteolytic activity towards the ribonuclease, and of ribonuclease retention in particles. The lysosomes were stable at 37 degrees C in isotonic, sucrose-free solutions of KCl, NaCl, and potassium acetate, and in mixtures of these with MgCl2, showing that these salts are relatively impermeant through the lysosomal membranes. The membranes were less permeable to Na+ than to K+. Both KCl and NaCl exerted their optimal protective effects over a broad concentration range above 0.125 M in 0.025 M acetate buffer. Mg2+ enhanced the protective effect of both K4 and Na+; the osmotic effect of 0.075 M NaC1-0.05 M MgCl2 was indistinguishable during the entire course of ribonuclease digestion from that of isotonic sucrose. Osmotic protection by KC1-MgC12 was demonstrated over the H range5.5-7.0. A marked alteration in membrane properties occurs at lower temperatures in 0.11 M KC1-0.01 M MgCl2 such that, at 0 degrees C, K+ permeability is much higher than at 37 degrees C, as shown by a several-fold decrease in stability at the lower temperature.

Abstract
1. Structure-linked latency, a trait for most lysosome hydrolase activities, is customarily ascribed to the permeability-barrier function performed by the particle-limiting membrane, which shields enzyme sites from externally added substrates. 2. The influence of various substrate concentrations on the reaction rate has been measured for both free (non-latent) and total (completely unmasked by Triton X-100) hydrolase activities in rat liver cell-free preparations. The substrates were: beta-glycerophosphate, phenolphthalein mono-beta-glucuronide. p-nitrophenyl N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminide and p-nitrophenyl beta-D-galactopyranoside. The ratio (free activity/total activity) X 100 is called fractional free activity at any given substrate concentration. 3. The fractional free activity of beta-glucuronidase and beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase were clearly independent of substrate concentration, over the range examined, in both homogenates and lysosome-rich fractions. The fractional free activity of acid phosphatase appeared to be either unaffected (homogenate) or even depressed (lysosome-rich fraction) by increasing the beta-glycerophosphate concentration. The fractional free activity of beta-galactosidase consistently showed a non-linear increase with increasing substrate concentration in both homogenates and lysosome-rich fractions. 4. Procedures such as treatment with digitonin, hypo-osmotic shock and acid autolysis, although effective in causing varying degrees of resolution of the latency of lysosome hydrolase activities, were unable to modify appreciably the pattern of dependence or independence of their fractional free activities on substrate concentration, as compared with that exhibited by control preparations. Ouabain did not affect the free beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase activity of liver homogenates at all. 5. Preincubation of control preparations with beta-glycerophosphate or p-nitrophenyl beta-galactoside did not result in any significant stimulation of the free hydrolytic activity toward these substrates. 6. The results consistently support the view that the membrane of "intact" lysosomes is virtually impermeable to all the substrates tested, except for p-nitrophenyl beta-galactoside, for which the evidence is contradictory. Moreover the progressive unmasking of the hydrolase activities produced by these procedures in vitro reflects the increasing proportion of enzyme sites that are fully accessible to their substrates rather than a graded increase in the permeability of the lysosomal membrane.

Abstract
1. A rat kidney lysosomal fraction was prepared by the method of Maunsbach (1966) and characterized by its content of representative marker enzymes for lysosomes, mitochondria, peroxisomes and endoplasmic reticulum. 2. It was shown that both pH-dependent and progesterone-induced lysis lead to a decrease in the E(520) of suspensions of this preparation. This decrease parallels quantitatively and temporally the release of soluble acid phosphatase. 3. It is suggested that E(520) measurements are a valid method for the continuous measurement of changes in lysosomal integrity. 4. As an example, results are included which demonstrate the ability of Zn(2+) to stabilize lysosomes against spontaneous and progesterone-induced lysis.

Abstract
1. Homogenization of mouse kidneys or livers in 0.25m-sucrose buffered with tris-acetate, pH7.3, resulted in a decreased rate of proteolysis within isolated heterolysosomes containing injected (125)I-labelled albumin when these particles were incubated at 35 degrees C. Proteolysis in mouse kidney or liver heterolysosomes isolated from homogenates made in 0.25m-sucrose buffered at pH7.3 was stimulated by pH5 buffer or by additions of ATP. 2. A greater inhibition of proteolysis was produced by including bicarbonate or pH8 borate buffers in the incubation media, and this inhibition was also reversed by ATP. 3. Other nucleoside triphosphates were not as effective as ATP, but GTP and ITP were more effective than CTP or UTP. ADP, AMP, or adenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate were completely without effect. 4. Although ATP prevented some heterolysosome breakage in media containing bicarbonate, the primary effect appeared to be to promote proteolytic activity. 5. These observations are consistent with the presence of a proton pump in the heterolysosome membrane, which functions to maintain intralysosomal pH in alkaline media.
