TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a set of guidelines for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macro-autophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes.

TL;DR: The fundamental theory of Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering and the development of Multifunctional Nanoplatforms, a next generation of SERS tags, are studied.

TL;DR: This paper showed that tumor cells without mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) showed delayed tumor growth, and that tumor formation is associated with acquisition of mtDNA from host cells, leading to partial recovery of mitochondrial function in cells derived from primary tumors grown from cells without mtDNA and a shorter lag in tumor growth.

TL;DR: As the production and applications of ENMs rapidly expand, their environmental impacts and effects on human health are becoming increasingly significant, and a thorough understanding of how nanomaterials perturb cells and biological molecules is required.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the cytotoxicities of three silver nanoparticles (SNPs) SNP-5, SNP-20 and SNP-50 with different sizes (approximately 5 nm, approximately 20 nm and approximately 50 nm) using four human cell models.
