Caveolin targeting to late endosome/lysosomal membranes is induced by perturbations of lysosomal pH and cholesterol content
Caveolin-1 traffics to late endosomal/lysosomal membranes in response to manipulations of the cholesterol content of cells, suggesting that caveolin functions in the egress of cholesterol from this organelle. Cavicles associate with the periphery of the lysosome as they do with caveosomes, but these are separate organelles
