Evidence has accumulated that there are different modes of regulated cell death, which share overlapping signaling pathways. Cytoskeletal-dependent inter-organellar communication as a result of protein and lipid trafficking in and out of organelles has emerged as a common, key issue in the regulation of cell death modalities. The movement of proteins and lipids between cell compartments is believed to relay death signals in part through modifications of organelles dynamics. Little is known, however, regarding how trafficking is integrated within stress signaling pathways directing organelle-specific remodeling events. In this review, we discuss emerging evidence supporting a role for regulated changes in actin dynamics and intracellular membrane flow. Based on recent findings using the adenovirus E4orf4 death factor as a probing tool to tackle the mechanistic underpinnings that control alternative modes of cell death, we propose the existence of multifunctional platforms at the endosome-Golgi interface regulated by SFK-signaling. These endosomal platforms could be mobilized during cell activation processes to reorganize cellular membranes and promote inter-organelle signaling.
