The lysosome is the main unit for degradation and plays important roles in various cellular processes, such as nutrient sensing, cholesterol regulation and cell death. Consequently, altered lysosomal function contributes to, or even causes, several diseases. Lysosomal membrane permeabilization (LMP) and release of lysosomal content to the cytosol can induce cell death, and is implicated in inflammation and neuronal decline in several neurodegenerative diseases. It has also emerged as a potential target in cancer therapy. Due to the detrimental effects of LMP, cells harbor several mechanisms to protect and prevent lysosomal membrane damage. The aim of this thesis was to elucidate how lysosomal membrane stability and repair mechanisms affect cell death and survival. We find that lysosomal cholesterol is upregulated in response to an increased load of reactive oxygen species in a Parkinson’s disease cell model, and that augmented cholesterol protects from LMP. However, cholesterol also induces accumulation of α-synuclein and inhibits lysosome-mediated degradation, which can destabilize the lysosomal membrane and accelerate the course of disease. Further, we demonstrate that lysosomal membrane damage is counteracted by a calcium-dependent repair mechanism to prevent LMP. Lysosomes damaged beyond repair are instead sequestered in an autophagosome and degraded by intact lysosomes in a process called lysophagy. As a result, small vesicles containing lysosomal membrane proteins are generated, which we believe are used to restore lysosomal function. We show that malignant cells are more sensitive to LMP, and that they differ in their activation of damage-response mechanisms compared to normal cells. Moreover, in malignant cells, the intracellular position of the lysosomes determines the susceptibility to lysosomal damage. Peripherally located lysosomes are less sensitive, and by relocating lysosomes to the perinuclear area in the cell, we can sensitize lysosomes to LMP induction. In summary, this thesis demonstrates the importance of damage-response mechanisms to protect from lysosomal membrane damage and maintain cellular function. It also indicates that targeting of lysosomal stability and repair is a potential therapeutic strategy in both neurodegenerative diseases and in cancer.
