Abstract

Besides the major organellesOrganelles of the cell, such as nucleus, mitochondria, EREndoplasmatic Reticulum (ER) and Golgi apparatusGolgi apparatus, the lysosomesLysosomes and peroxisomesPeroxisomes may fulfill prominent functions in the response to mechanical property alterations of their surrounding environment and possible also in providing the overall cell mechanicsCell mechanics. However, their biological functions are still not less important and are presented here additionally. In specific detail, the structure and function of lysosomesLysosomes and peroxisomesPeroxisomes are presented. The effect of environmental mechanics on organellesOrganelles, such as lysosomes and peroxisomes, is discussed.
