Lysosomes

  • Harold Koenig
Chapter

Abstract

In the nervous system, as elsewhere, hydrolytic enzymes with acid pH optima are sequestered in a latent state within a special cytoplasmic granule, the lysosome. This organelle has been implicated in a number of physiological and pathological processes and has attracted considerable attention because of the destructive potential of its enzymes. In this chapter we shall briefly survey the current status of lysosomes with particular reference to the nervous system. For a general review of this subject, the reader is referred to several comprehensive articles.(1–4)
