Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy

Daniel J. Klionsky, +1287 more
- 01 Apr 2012 - 
TL;DR: These guidelines are presented for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macroautophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anti-tumoral action of cannabinoids: involvement of sustained ceramide accumulation and extracellular signal-regulated kinase activation.

Ismael Galve-Roperh, +4 more
- 01 Mar 2000 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that intratumoral administration of Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol and the synthetic cannabinoid agonist WIN-55,212-2 induced a considerable regression of malignant gliomas in Wistar rats and in mice deficient in recombination activating gene 2.
Journal ArticleDOI

Short interfering RNAs as a tool for cancer gene therapy

Marta Izquierdo
- 01 Mar 2005 - 
TL;DR: RNAi technology can be directed against cancer using a variety of strategies, including the inhibition of overexpressed oncogenes, blocking cell division by interfering with cyclin E and related genes or promoting apoptosis by suppressing antiapoptotic genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Use of the 2A sequence from foot-and-mouth disease virus in the generation of retroviral vectors for gene therapy

P. de Felipe, +4 more
- 01 Feb 1999 - 
TL;DR: The construction of retroviral plasmid vectors in which two genes are linked by a minimum of 96 nucleotides encoding the 2A sequence from the picornavirus foot-and-mouth disease virus are described.
Journal Article

Human malignant brain tumor response to herpes simplex thymidine kinase (HSVtk)/ganciclovir gene therapy.

Marta Izquierdo, +8 more
- 01 Jun 1996 - 
TL;DR: Growing cells from human brain tumors have been treated in vitro and in vivo with murine therapeutic retroviral producer cells, which carried the potential suicide gene thymidine kinase from the herpes simplex virus.
