  • Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy
  • 2012

    • In 2008 we published the first set of guidelines for standardizing research in autophagy. Since then, research on this topic has continued to accelerate, and many new scientists have entered the field. Our knowledge base and relevant new technologies have also been expanding. Accordingly, it is important to update these guidelines for monitoring autophagy in different organisms. Various reviews have described the range of assays that have been used for this purpose. Nevertheless, there continues to be confusion regarding acceptable methods to measure autophagy, especially in multicellular eukaryotes. A key point that needs to be emphasized is that there is a difference between measurements that monitor the numbers or volume of autophagic elements (e.g., autophagosomes or autolysosomes) at any stage of the autophagic process vs. those that measure flux through the autophagy pathway (i.e., the complete process); thus, a block in macroautophagy that results in autophagosome accumulation needs to be differentiated from stimuli that result in increased autophagic activity, defined as increased autophagy induction coupled with increased delivery to, and degradation within, lysosomes (in most higher eukaryotes and some protists such as Dictyostelium) or the vacuole (in plants and fungi). In other words, it is especially important that investigators new to the field understand that the appearance of more autophagosomes does not necessarily equate with more autophagy. In fact, in many cases, autophagosomes accumulate because of a block in trafficking to lysosomes without a concomitant change in autophagosome biogenesis, whereas an increase in autolysosomes may reflect a reduction in degradative activity. Here, we present a set of guidelines 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. These guidelines are not meant to be a formulaic set of rules, because the appropriate assays depend in part on the question being asked and the system being used. In addition, we emphasize that no individual assay is guaranteed to be the most appropriate one in every situation, and we strongly recommend the use of multiple assays to monitor autophagy. In these guidelines, we consider these various methods of assessing autophagy and what information can, or cannot, be obtained from them. Finally, by discussing the merits and limits of particular autophagy assays, we hope to encourage technical innovation in the field.

  • Influence of genetic polymorphisms of biotransformation enzymes on gene mutations, strand breaks of deoxyribonucleic acid, and micronuclei in mononuclear blood cells and urinary 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine in potroom workers exposed to polyaromatic hydrocarbons
  • 1999
  • Ingår i: Scandinavian Journal of Work, Environment and Health. - : Scandinavian Journal of Work, Environment and Health. - 0355-3140 .- 1795-990X. ; 25:4, s. 351-360

    • OBJECTIVES: Airborne exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) in the potroom of an aluminum reduction plant was studied in relation to genotoxic or mutagenic effects, and the possibility of host genotypes of different metabolizing enzymes modifying associations between PAH exposure and genotoxic or mutagenic response was assessed. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Ninety-eight male potroom workers and 55 male unexposed blue-collar workers constituted the study population. Micronuclei in CD4+ and CD8+ lymphocytes, DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) single-strand breaks, hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (HPRT) mutation frequency, and genotype for cytochrome P-4501A1, glutathione transferases M1, T1 and P1, and microsomal epoxide hydrolase were analyzed using peripheral mononuclear cells. Urine samples were collected for the analysis of 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine. RESULTS: Micronuclei in peripheral CD4+ and CD8+ lymphocytes, DNA single-strand breaks, HPRT mutation frequency, and 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine in urine did not differ between the potroom workers and the unexposed referents. With the exception of an observed exposure-response relationship for potroom workers with Tyr/Tyr genotype for microsomal epoxide hydrolase, between airborne PAH and CD8+ micronuclei, no correlations were found between any of the genotoxicity biomarkers and any of the exposure measures (airborne particulate PAH, airborne gas phase PAH, length of employment in the potroom, 1-hydroxypyrene in urine, or PAH-DNA adducts in peripheral lymphocytes), also when genotypes for biotransforamtion enzymes were considered. CONCLUSIONS: The results indicate that the employed biomarkers of mutagenic or genotoxic effects are not appropriate for surveillance studies of potroom workers exposed to current airborne levels of PAH. The significance of the correlation between airborne PAH and CD8+ micronuclei in Tyr/Tyr genotype subjects should be evaluated.

  • Highly Efficient Perovskite Nanocrystal Light-Emitting Diodes Enabled by a Universal Crosslinking Method
  • 2016
  • Ingår i: Advanced Materials. - : WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH. - 0935-9648 .- 1521-4095. ; 28:18, s. 3528-
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The preparation of highly efficient perovskite nanocrystal light-emitting diodes is shown. A new trimethylaluminum vapor-based crosslinking method to render the nanocrystal films insoluble is applied. The resulting near-complete nanocrystal film coverage, coupled with the natural confinement of injected charges within the perovskite crystals, facilitates electron-hole capture and give rise to a remarkable electroluminescence yield of 5.7%.

  • Laser-driven generation of collimated ultra-relativistic positron beams
  • 2013
  • Ingår i: Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion. - London : Institute of Physics (IOP). - 0741-3335 .- 1361-6587. ; 55:12
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • We report on recent experimental results concerning the generation of collimated (divergence of the order of a few mrad) ultra-relativistic positron beams using a fully optical system. The positron beams are generated exploiting a quantum-electrodynamic cascade initiated by the propagation of a laser-accelerated, ultra-relativistic electron beam through high-Z solid targets. As long as the target thickness is comparable to or smaller than the radiation length of the material, the divergence of the escaping positron beam is of the order of the inverse of its Lorentz factor. For thicker solid targets the divergence is seen to gradually increase, due to the increased number of fundamental steps in the cascade, but it is still kept of the order of few tens of mrad, depending on the spectral components in the beam. This high degree of collimation will be fundamental for further injection into plasma-wakefield afterburners.
