The endocytic penetration mechanism of iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles with positively charged cover: a morphological approachMagdalena Cañete
Departamento de Biologia, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid C Darwin 2, Cantoblanco, Madrid, Spain
Int J Mol Med 26:533-9. 2010..We determined the potential internalization mechanism of nanoparticles into cells using endocytosis inhibitors. The results suggest that nanoparticles used in this study penetrate A-549 cells mainly through a macropinocytosis process...

Cell uptake of Zn(II)-phthalocyanine-containing liposomes by clathrin-mediated endocytosisJorge Soriano
Departamento de Biologia, Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad Autonoma de Madrid, Darwin 2, 28049, Madrid, Spain
Histochem Cell Biol 133:449-54. 2010..These results indicate that ZnPc is internalized into cells preferentially by a mechanism of clathrin-mediated endocytosis...
Caspase-2: a possible trigger of apoptosis induced in A-549 tumor cells by ZnPc photodynamic treatmentJavier Cristóbal
Departamento de Biologia, Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad Autonoma de Madrid, Cantoblanco, Madrid, Spain
Int J Oncol 28:1057-63. 2006..From this results we assume that following the photodynamic treatment of A-549 cells with ZnPc, the activation of caspase-2 in the Golgi apparatus could begin to initiate immediately the apoptotic process...
Vehiculization determines the endocytic internalization mechanism of Zn(II)-phthalocyanineJorge Soriano
Departamento de Biologia, Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad Autonoma de Madrid, 28049 Madrid, Spain
Histochem Cell Biol 139:149-60. 2013..We conclude that using different drug vehiculization systems, it is possible to modify the internalization mechanism of a therapeutic compound, which could be of great interest in clinical research...

Departamento de Biologia, Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad Autonoma de Madrid, Cantoblanco, 28049 Madrid, Spain
Int J Oncol 24:1221-8. 2004..Present results show that the cell type plays a fundamental role in relation to the apoptotic or necrotic response to photosensitization, and that cytoskeletal components are important targets implicated in cell death processes...
