TL;DR: Allogenic transplantation of isolated chondrocytes embedded in collagen gel appears to be one of the most promising methods for the restoration of articular cartilage.

TL;DR: The functions of autophagy in cancer and kidney injury are summarized, especially focusing on the use of chloroquine to treat cancer, and the possible side effects are addressed in the combined use ofchloroquine and anticancer drugs.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that lysosomes are selectively sequestered by autophagy, when damaged by MSU, silica, or the lysOSomotropic reagent L‐Leucyl‐L‐leucine methyl ester (LLOMe).
