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: Highly sensitive nanotubular structures formed de novo between cells that create complex networks facilitate the selective transfer of membrane vesicles and organelles but seem to impede the flow of small molecules are described.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors describe a general solution to this problem that starts with a broad exploration of the vast space of possible binding modes to a selected region of a protein surface and then intensifies the search in the vicinity of the most promising binding modes.

TL;DR: The multiple mechanisms underlying the in vitro anticancer effects of the C(60) fullerene water suspension are demonstrated and primary rat astrocytes were less sensitive than their transformed counterparts to a cytostatic action of low-dose nC(60).

TL;DR: AMPK-dependent protection from extracellular ASYN was also observed in rat neuron-like pheochromocytoma cell line PC12, suggesting that modulation of AMPK activity may be a promising therapeutic strategy in Parkinson's disease.
