Lysosomal TMEM165 controls cellular ion homeostasis and survival by mediating lysosomal Ca
Article in Nature communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The proper function of lysosomes depends on their ability to store and release calcium. While several lysosomal calcium release channels have been described, how lysosomes replenish their calcium stores in placental mammals has not been determined. Using genetic depletion and overexpression techniques combined with electrophysiology and visualization of subcellular ion concentrations and their fluxes across the lysosomal membrane, we show here that TMEM165 imports calcium to the lysosomal lumen and mediates calcium-induced lysosomal proton leakage. Accordingly, TMEM165 accelerates the recovery of cells from cytosolic calcium overload thereby enhancing cell survival while causing a significant acidification of the cytosol. These data indicate that in addition to its previously identified role in the glycosylation of proteins and lipids in the Golgi, a fraction of TMEM165 localizes on the lysosomal limiting membrane, where its putative calcium/proton antiporter activity plays an essential role in the regulation of intracellular ion homeostasis and cell survival.
