    Abstract Autophagy is an intracellular self-degradation process in which part of the cytoplasm, aggregates, or damaged organelles are degraded in lysosomes. Lysophagy is a specific form of selective autophagy responsible for clearing damaged lysosomes. Here, we present a protocol for inducing lysosomal damage in cultured cells and assessing lysosomal damage using a high-content imager and software program. We describe steps for induction of lysosomal damage, image acquisition with spinning disk confocal microscopy, and image analysis using Pathfinder. We then detail data analysis of the clearance of damaged lysosomes. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Teranishi et al. (2022).

    Abstract Autophagy is a highly conserved intracellular degradation system in eukaryotes that maintains cellular and tissue homeostasis. Upon autophagy induction, cytoplasmic components are engulfed by a double-membrane organelle called the autophagosome that fuses with a lysosome to degrade its contents. In recent years, it has become clear that autophagy becomes dysregulated with aging, which leads to age-related diseases. Kidney function is particularly prone to age-related decline, and aging is the most significant risk factor for chronic kidney disease. This review first discuss the relationship between autophagy and kidney aging. Second, we describe how age-related dysregulation of autophagy occurs. Finally, we discuss the potential of autophagy-targeting drugs to ameliorate human kidney aging and the approaches necessary to discover such agents.

    Abstract Autophagy is a process that targets various intracellular elements for degradation. Autophagy can be non-selective - associated with the indiscriminate engulfment of cytosolic components - occurring in response to nutrient starvation and is commonly referred to as bulk autophagy. By contrast, selective autophagy degrades specific targets, such as damaged organelles (mitophagy, lysophagy, ER-phagy, ribophagy), aggregated proteins (aggrephagy) or invading bacteria (xenophagy), thereby being importantly involved in cellular quality control. Hence, not surprisingly, aberrant selective autophagy has been associated with various human pathologies, prominently including neurodegeneration and infection. In recent years, considerable progress has been made in understanding mechanisms governing selective cargo engulfment in mammals, including the identification of ubiquitin-dependent selective autophagy receptors such as p62, NBR1, OPTN and NDP52, which can bind cargo and ubiquitin simultaneously to initiate pathways leading to autophagy initiation and membrane recruitment. This progress opens the prospects for enhancing selective autophagy pathways to boost cellular quality control capabilities and alleviate pathology.

    Abstract The background light from out-of-focus planes hinders resolution enhancement in structured illumination microscopy when observing volumetric samples. Here we used selective plane illumination and reversibly photoswitchable fluorescent proteins to realize structured illumination within the focal plane and eliminate the out-of-focus background. Theoretical investigation of the imaging properties and experimental demonstrations show that selective plane activation is beneficial for imaging dense microstructures in cells and cell spheroids.

    Abstract Simultaneous live cell imaging of multiple proteins helps to analyze mobility and interactions among proteins over time. Since autophagosomes depend on other organelles for their formation, it is necessary to observe this process with multiple fluorsphores to mark multiple organelles and the autophagosomes. To do so, we set up three cameras on one microscope to be able to acquire three colors at the same time. Here we describe the setup using a Yokogawa spinning disk confocal microscope (CSU-W1) with Andor TuCam system attaching 3 × Zyla 4.2 CMOS cameras (Andor) and detail the method for acquiring live images.

    Abstract Macroautophagy is a bulk degradation system in which double membrane-bound structures called autophagosomes to deliver cytosolic materials to lysosomes. Autophagy promotes cellular homeostasis by selectively recognizing and sequestering specific targets, such as damaged organelles, protein aggregates, and invading bacteria, termed selective autophagy. We previously reported a type of selective autophagy, lysophagy, which helps clear damaged lysosomes. Damaged lysosomes become ubiquitinated and recruit autophagic machinery. Proteomic studies using transfection reagent-coated beads and further evaluations reveal that a CUL4A-DDB1-WDFY1 E3 ubiquitin ligase complex is essential to initiate lysophagy and clear damaged lysosomes. Moreover, we show that LAMP2 is ubiquitinated by the CUL4A E3 ligase complex as a substrate on damaged lysosomes. These results reveal how cells selectively tag damaged lysosomes to initiate autophagy for the clearance of lysosomes.

    Abstract Upon fasting, adipocytes release their lipids that accumulate in the liver, thus promoting hepatic steatosis and ketone body production. However, the mechanisms underlying this process are not fully understood. In this study, we found that fasting caused a substantial decrease in the adipose levels of RUBCN/rubicon, a negative regulator of macroautophagy/autophagy, along with an increase in autophagy.

    Abstract Lysosomes are degradative organelles and signaling hubs that maintain cell and tissue homeostasis, and lysosomal dysfunction is implicated in aging and reduced longevity. Lysosomes are frequently damaged, but their repair mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we demonstrate that damaged lysosomal membranes are repaired by microautophagy (a process termed "microlysophagy") and identify key regulators of the first and last steps. We reveal the AGC kinase STK38 as a novel microlysophagy regulator. Through phosphorylation of the scaffold protein DOK1, STK38 is specifically required for the lysosomal recruitment of the AAA+ ATPase VPS4, which terminates microlysophagy by promoting the disassembly of ESCRT components. By contrast, microlysophagy initiation involves non-canonical lipidation of ATG8s, especially the GABARAP subfamily, which is required for ESCRT assembly through interaction with ALIX. Depletion of STK38 and GABARAPs accelerates DNA damage-induced cellular senescence in human cells and curtails lifespan in C. elegans, respectively. Thus, microlysophagy is regulated by STK38 and GABARAPs and could be essential for maintaining lysosomal integrity and preventing aging.
