Molty-Level Regulation: Lysosomes Participate in Developmental ECM Remodeling in C. elegans

Dev Cell. 2020 Jan 6;52(1):1-2. doi: 10.1016/j.devcel.2019.12.008.

Abstract

Dynamic regulation of lysosomes allows them to play key roles in cell and tissue homeostasis. In this issue of Developmental Cell, Miao et al. find that a novel transcriptional pathway triggered by loss of cell adhesion activates lysosomes in C. elegans epidermis during developmental remodeling of the cuticle.
