Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (3rd edition)

Daniel J. Klionsky, +2522 more
- 21 Jan 2016 - 
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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of autophagy enhances the anticancer activity of silver nanoparticles

Jun Lin, +14 more
- 30 Oct 2014 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that Ag NPs induced autophagy in cancer cells by activating the PtdIns3K signaling pathway, and wortmannin, a widely used inhibitor of autophagosome formation, significantly enhanced the antitumor effect of Ag Nps in the B16 mouse melanoma cell model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tuning the autophagy-inducing activity of lanthanide-based nanocrystals through specific surface-coating peptides

Yunjiao Zhang, +11 more
- 01 Sep 2012 - 
TL;DR: RE-1 and its variants provide a versatile tool for tuning material-cell interactions to achieve the desired level of autophagy, and may prove useful for the various diagnostic and therapeutic applications of LN-based nanomaterials and nanodevices.
Journal ArticleDOI

Harnessing copper-palladium alloy tetrapod nanoparticle-induced pro-survival autophagy for optimized photothermal therapy of drug-resistant cancer

Yunjiao Zhang, +15 more
- 12 Oct 2018 - 
TL;DR: The results provide a proof-of-concept for a chemo-PTT strategy, which utilizes autophagy inhibitors instead of traditional chemotherapeutic agents and is particularly useful for eradicating drug-resistant cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Core/shell Fe3O4/Gd2O3 nanocubes as T1-T2 dual modal MRI contrast agents.

Fenfen Li, +10 more
- 23 Jun 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the synthesis of novel core/shell Fe3O4/Gd2O3 nanocubes as T1-T2 dual-modal contrast agents (CAs) and their application for enhanced T 1 −T 2 MR imaging of rat livers.
