Term
Lysosome develop from
Definition
late endosomes also known as prelysosomes
Term
This model describes early and late endosomes as stable cellular organelles connected by vesicular transport with external environment of the cell and with the Golgi app. Coated vesicles formed at the plasma membrane fuse only with early endosomes because of their expression of specific surface receptors. The receptor remains part of the early endosomal membrane
Definition
stable compartment model of endosomes
Term
early endosomes are formed de novo from endocytotic vesicles originating from the plasma membrane. The composition of the membrane changes as some components are recycled between the cell surface and Golgi. This maturation leads to formation of late endosomes then lysosomes.
Definition

Term
What are highly selective transporters that takes proteins in early endosomes and packs and sorts them so they go into late lysosomes?
Definition
MVBs (multivesicular bodies)
Term
The function of this is to sort and recycle proteins internalized by endocytotic pathways?
Definition
early endosomes, also known as compartments of uncoupling receptors and ligands (CURLs)
Term
What are the fours fates if receptor-ligand processes?
Definition
1) the receptor is recycled and the ligand is degraded (used for LDL and GLUT receptor complexes and peptide hormones)
2) both receptor and ligand are recycled (MHC I & II molecules are both recycled)
3) both receptor and ligand are degraded (way EGF (epidermal growth factor) is degraded)
4) both receptor and ligand are transported through the cell (used for IgA)
Term
removal of cytoplasmic components, particularly membrane bound organelles by digesting them with lysosomes
Definition
autophagy
Term
organelles rich in hydrolytic enzymes such as proteases, nucleases, glycosidases, lipases, and phospholipases
Definition
lysosomes
Term

Definition

Term
Low luminal pH in lysosomes is maintained by
Definition
proton (H+) pumps
Term
limps (lysosomal membrane proteins) exit the golgi in coated vesicles and they are delivered to the cell surface. they are then endocytosed and finally via early and late endosomes reach the lysosomes
Definition
constitutive secretory pathway
Term
limps after sorting and packaging exit the Golgi in clathrin-coated vesicles, they travel and fuse with late endosomes as a result of interactions between endosome-specific v-SNARE and t-SNARE docing proteins
Definition
Golgi-derived coated vesicle secretory pathway
Term

Term
What are some examples of Lysosomal Storage Diseases (LSDs) that are Disorders of Lysosomal membrane?
Definition
Danon disease and Cystinosis
Term
Non-specific process in which a portion of the cytoplasm or an entire organelle is surrounded by a double or multilamellar intracellular membrane of the ER, called isolation membrane, to form a vacule called a autophagosome. . Later lysosomal proteins target this vesicle
Definition
macroautophagy
Term
non-specific process which cytoplasmic proteins are degraded in a slow, continuous process under normal physiologic conditions
Definition
microautophagy
Term
epithelial lining of the blood and lymph vessels
Definition
endothelium
Term
epithelial lining of ventricles and atria of the heart
Definition
endocardium
Term
epithelium that lines the walls and covers the contents of closed cavities of the body
Definition
mesothelium
Term
What are some of the diverse functions of the epithelium?
Definition
1) secretion
2) absorption
3) transportation
4) protection
5) receptor function
Term
This domain of epithelium is always directed toward the exterior surface or lumen.
Definition
apical domain
Term
This domain communicates with adjacent cells and is characterized by special attachment areas.
Definition
lateral domain
Term
This domain rests on the basal lamina anchoring the cell to the connective tissue.
Definition
basal domain
Term
This is an adaptive response to stress, chronic inflammation, or abnormal stimuli that causes a reversible conversion of one mature epithelial cell to another mature epithelial type. IF this remains for too long it can transform into a carcinoma. So treat by removing stressor.
Definition

Term
cytoplasmic processes containing a core of actin filaments
Definition
microvilli

microvilli of an unusual length
Definition
stereocilia or stereovilli
Term
cytoplasmic processes containing bundle of microtubules
Definition
cilia
Term
The core of a microvilli contains 30 or 30 of these attached to this.
Definition
20 or 30 actin filaments anchored to a villin located at the tip of the microvillus
Term
This protein participates in maintaining the barrier between adjacent cells as well as the barrier between apical and lateral domains.
Definition
Occludins

E-cadherin-catenin complex

Gap junctions (nexus)
Term
These glands secrete their products onto a surface directly or through epithelial ducts or tubes that are connected to a surface.
Definition
Exocrine glands
Term
These glands lack a duct system. They secrete their products (hormones) into connective tissue, from which they enter the bloodstream to reach their target.
Definition
Endocrine glands
Term
These basal junctions anchor the actin-cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix and detects and transduces signals from outside the cell.
Definition
Focal adhesion
Term
These basal junctions anchor the intermediate filaments to the extracellular matrix.
Definition
Hemidesmosomes
Term
Tell me the order of events for getting lysosomal enzymes to endosomes...
Definition
1)Lysosomal enzymes become segregated from other nascent proteins in the trans Golgi network
2) where they bind to M6P receptors in clathrin-coated regions
3)Clathrin-coated vesicles bud from the TransGolgi Network (TGN)
4) fuse with late endosomes
5)Acidification of the endosome lumen by proton pumps
6) causes the lysosomal enzymes to dissociate from the M6P receptors
7) which are then recycled to the Golgi
8) To ensure that lysosomal enzymes cannot return to the Golgi, the phosphate groups are removed from mannose.
