Lysosomes and autophagy in cell death control

Open access
Kroemer, Guido, Jäättelä, Marja·2005·Nature Reviews Cancer

Abstract

Lysosomal hydrolases participate in the digestion of endocytosed and autophagocytosed material inside the lysosomal/autolysosomal compartment in acute cell death when released into the cytosol and in cancer progression following their release into the extracellular space. Lysosomal alterations are common in cancer cells. The increased expression and altered trafficking of lysosomal enzymes participates in tissue invasion, angiogenesis and sensitization to the lysosomal death pathway. But lysosomal heat-shock protein 70 locally prevents lysosomal-membrane permeabilization. Similarly, alterations in the autophagic compartment are linked to carcinogenesis and resistance to chemotherapy. Targeting these pathways might constitute a novel approach to cancer therapy.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
