  38. Summary • Induction of autophagy is a frequent cellular response upon exposure to nanomaterials • Nanomaterial-induced autophagy may increase, decrease, or have no effect on, cell death • Nanomaterial-induced autophagy maybe exploited for cancer therapy in different ways • Replacing traditional chemotherapeutics with chemical inhibitor of autophagy represents a novel chemo-PTT strategy for certain engineered nanomaterials with capability of inducing pro-survival autophagy 42
