Lysosomal ion channels play key roles in regulating membrane trafficking, autophagy, and cell death. RECS1 is a pH-sensitive lysosomal calcium channel previously implicated in lysosome-mediated apoptosis. Here, we identify a novel role for RECS1 in exosome biology. Using immunoprecipitation followed by mass spectrometry, we mapped RECS1 interactors under apoptotic and lysosomal stress conditions. Notably, Syntenin-1, a key scaffolding protein in ESCRT-independent exosome biogenesis, emerged as the top hit. We validated the physical interaction between RECS1-Syntenin-1 using various approaches. RECS1 localized to secreted exosomes, and its overexpression increased exosome production, as measured by nanoparticle tracking analysis. Intriguingly, a channel-dead RECS1 retained both Syntenin-1 interaction and the ability to promote exosome release, suggesting a channel-independent mechanism. Our findings identify RECS1 as a structural component of the exosomal trafficking machinery and a modulator of extracellular vesicle biogenesis. This work connects lysosomal signalling with intercellular communication and suggests a broader role for RECS1 in stress-responsive secretion.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
