Why does the article say that endosomes originate from the trans Golgi membrane, when endosomes are first made through the process of endocytosis at the plasma membrane? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Julrich88 (talk • contribs) 20:02, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. What is described here sounds more like a vesicle. 140.228.217.193 (talk) 19:14, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Lead should START with WHAT an Endosome IS.

This current lead describes endosomes, plural, and should really start by describing a single endosome, and only then mention that there are many of them in a cell. Something like this:
An Endosome is a membrane-bound cytoplasmic vessicle which brings material which is outside the cell into the cell. An endosome is created by the invagination (folding inward) of a cell’s plasma membrane to surround macromolecules or other matter diffusing through the extracellular fluid. Endosomes pass this material onto lysomes for digestion and recycling. UnderEducatedGeezer (talk) 00:45, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
