Ultrasmall nanoparticles induce ferroptosis in nutrient-deprived cancer cells and suppress tumour growth

TL;DR: It is shown that ultrasmall (< 10 nm in diameter) poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-coated silica nanoparticles, functionalized with melanoma-targeting peptides, can induce a form of programmed cell death known as ferroptosis in starved cancer cells and cancer-bearing mice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Autophagy machinery mediates macroendocytic processing and entotic cell death by targeting single membranes

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that proteins of the autophagy pathway can target single-membrane vacuoles in cells in the absence of pathogenic organisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

V-ATPase and osmotic imbalances activate endolysosomal LC3 lipidation

TL;DR: Evidence is presented that this pathway requires activity of the vacuolar-type H+-ATPase (V- ATPase) and is induced by osmotic imbalances within endolysosomal compartments, and it is demonstrated that the widely and therapeutically used drug chloroquine, which is conventionally used to inhibit autophagy flux, is an inducer of LC3 lipidation.
