IP3-induced calcium release increases cellular lysosome content downstream of receptor signaling via phospholipase C and Ca2+/calcineurin.A, schematic representation of phospholipase C (PLC)-mediated cleavage of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) into diacylglycerol (DAG) and IP3 downstream of receptor signaling. IP3 triggers Ca2+ release from the ER via IP3 receptors (IP3Rs), a pathway repressed by INPP5A-mediated IP3 hydrolysis. Ca2+ release activates calcineurin (CaN), which dephosphorylates and thereby activates TFEB to induce lysosomal gene expression. B, quantification of relative CD63 levels in representative data shown in C. Data for SCR-control siRNA-treated cells were set to 1. One-sample Student's t test followed by Benjamini–Hochberg correction. -/5AKD: p = 0.0267, t = 4.072, and df = 3. Xesto/5AKD: p = 0.1660, t = 1.822, and df = 3.
