| dc.description.abstract | Scope and Method of Study: The method of study was a research of material in the library. The scope of study included the biochemical concept of the lysosome, its characteristics which afford visual identification, and its functions in physiology and pathology. | |
| dc.description.abstract | Findings and Conclusions: It was determined in the study that the lysosome is a polymorphic organelle of the cell which contains at least a dozen hydrolytic enzymes. It is on these enzymes that its functions depend, both pathological and physiological. The lysosome is essential in such physiological events as the resorption of the tadpole tail during metamorphosis, regression of the Mullerian ducts in embryos and perhaps it is essential in the fertilization process. The lysosome is also active in such diseases as muscular dystrophy, hypervitaminosis A and perhaps in old age. | |
