Direct observation of selective autophagy induction in cells and tissues by self-assembled chiral nanodevice

Chiral assemblies have gained great interest for probing intracellular effects. Here, the authors report on the development of an upconversion nanoparticle-centred yolk-shell nanoparticle tetrahedron for the induction of autophagy and the monitoring of ATP levels both in living cells and in vivo.
