LRRK2 Suppresses Lysosome Degradative Activity in Macrophages and Microglia Through MiT-TFE Transcription Factor Inhibition
2022-12-18
Abstract excerpt
Cells maintain optimal levels of lysosome degradative activity to protect against pathogens, clear waste and generate nutrients. Here we show that LRRK2, a protein that is tightly linked to Parkinson’s disease, negatively regulates lysosome degradative activity in macrophages and microglia via a transcriptional mechanism. Depletion of LRRK2 and inhibition of LRRK2 kinase activity enhanced lysosomal proteolytic act...
