Lysosomes do not contain cells, but cells can contain lysosomes. Lysosomes are organelles found inside cells with digestive enzymes in them. They can digest other orgenelles, or even viruses or bacteria. If their contents spills out it can damage the cells and surrounding tissue. It's thought to play a role in rheumatoid arthritis and other connective tissue diseases (J Clin Pathol Suppl (R Coll Pathol). 1978; 12: 105–116.)
