Endo- and Exocytosis of Zwitterionic Quantum Dot Nanoparticles by Live HeLa Cells
Abstract
Uptake and intracellular transport of D-penicillamine coated quantum dots (DPA-QDs) of 4 nm radius by live HeLa cells have been investigated systematically by spinning disk and 4Pi confocal microscopies. Unlike larger nanoparticles, these small DPA-QDs were observed to accumulate at the plasma membrane prior to internalization, and the uptake efficiency scaled nonlinearly with the nanoparticle concentration. Both observations indicate that a critical threshold density has to be exceeded for triggering the internalization process. By using specific inhibitors, we showed that DPA-QDs were predominantly internalized by clathrin-mediated endocytosis and to a smaller extent by macropinocytosis. Clusters of DPA-QDs were found in endosomes, which were actively transported along microtubules toward the perinuclear region. Later on, a significant fraction of endocytosed DPA-QDs were found in lysosomes, while others were actively transported to the cell periphery and exocytosed with a half-life of 21 min.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
