Lysosomal pH is important for regulating various physiological processes, and slight fluctuations in lysosomal pH can induce many adverse effects on cellular status, such as inflammation, aging, and tumours. Heat stroke is one of the most serious causes of morbidity and mortality. However, the relationship between heat shock and lysosomal pH values is still poorly understood. Herein, we introduced a colorimetric and turn-on fluorescent probe in the red to NIR range for monitoring lysosomal pH values. The probe can selectively accumulate in lysosomes with a high Pearson's coefficient (0.95), and the suitable p value (6.73 ± 0.07) enables the probe to visualize changes in lysosomal pH values during the stimulation by chloroquine and heat stroke, respectively.

Silicon dioxide nanoparticles (SiO NPs) are a novel material with a wide range of applications whose cumulative effects in the body pose certain health risks. The types of gastric injuries caused by different-sized SiO NPs and their mechanisms, however, remain unclear. Based on this, we established a mouse subchronic exposure model (10 mg/kg/d, 21 consecutive days of tube-feeding) with different SiO NP sizes (50, 300, and 1000 nm) in conjunction with in vitro MC9 and BMMCs models (160 μg/mL exposure for 24 h) to explore the gastric injury mechanisms.

Multiple biological barriers severely restrict the delivery efficiency of nanoparticles (NPs) to tumors. To overcome biological barriers, traditional NPs usually require a complex design, which increases the difficulty of clinical translation. Therefore, there appears to be a dilemma between the complex biological barriers and clinical requirement for a simple molecular structure of NPs.

Objective: Lysosomes hold a pivotal role in the initiation and advancement of diverse diseases. Nevertheless, the specific biological functions of lysosomes in diabetic nephropathy (DN) remain undisclosed. This study seeks to uncover relevant lysosome-related molecular subtypes and biomarkers for DN through bioinformatics analysis.

A growing body of research suggests that inhibition of autophagy may be a novel means of treating cancer and suppressing drug resistance. Therefore, a series of drugs derived from the Linn were screened in this study. Among them, the pterocarpan erythrabyssin II (EL-19) is a potent late-stage autophagy inhibitor, which could effectively block the fusion of autophagosome and lysosome, leading to the accumulation of autophagic substrates in both ovarian cancer A2780 and A2780/DDP cells.

Background: Danon disease (DD), an X-linked disorder due to lysosome-associated membrane protein 2 (LAMP2) mutations, features life-threatening cardiomyopathy. Sex-based cardiac magnetic resonance (cardiac MR) differences are recognized but lack quantitative analysis despite their critical importance in establishing sex-specific diagnostic thresholds and personalized treatment strategies.
Purpose: To investigate sex-based differences in cardiac MR manifestations in DD.
