Super-resolution microscopy: Insights into mitochondria-lysosome crosstalk in health and disease

J Cell Biol. 2023 Dec 4;222(12):e202305032. doi: 10.1083/jcb.202305032. Epub 2023 Nov 2.

Abstract

Live super-resolution microscopy has allowed for new insights into recently identified mitochondria-lysosome contact sites, which mediate crosstalk between mitochondria and lysosomes, including co-regulation of Rab7 GTP hydrolysis and Drp1 GTP hydrolysis. Here, we highlight recent findings and future perspectives on this dynamic pathway and its roles in health and disease.
