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

Just like the body contains lungs, liver, and lymph nodes, so does each of the body's cells contain tiny specialized organs. Perhaps most peculiar among them are lysosomes--bubble-like sacks that act ...

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