Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) presents treatment challenges due to a lack of detectable surface receptors. Natural killer (NK) cell-based adaptive immunotherapy is promising because the characteristic anticancer effects killing malignant cells directly by secreting cytokines and lytic granules. To maximize recognition ability NK cells, biomaterial-mediated ex vivo cell engineering has been developed for sufficient membrane immobilization tumor-targeting ligands via hydrophobic anchoring. In this study, we optimized amphiphilic balances coating materials composed CD44-targeting hyaluronic acid (HA)-poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-lipid improve TNBC effect. Changes in modular design our material differentiating hydrophilic PEG length incorporating lipid amount into HA backbones precisely regulated nature HA-PEG-lipid conjugates. The biomaterial demonstrated improved anchoring membranes facilitating presentation level onto surfaces. This led enhanced targeting increasing formation immune synapse, thereby augmenting capability specifically toward CD44-positive cells. Our approach addresses solid tumors with deficiency tumor-specific antigens while offering valuable strategy using balance techniques.

Ferroptosis therapy and immunotherapy have been widely used in cancer treatment. However, nonselective induction of ferroptosis tumors is prone to immunosuppression, limiting the therapeutic effect To address this issue, study reports a customized hybrid nanovesicle composed NK cell-derived extracellular versicles RSL3-loaded liposomes (hNRVs), aiming establish positive cycle between immunotherapy. Thanks enhanced permeability retention tumor homing characteristics exosomes, our data indicate that hNRVs can actively accumulate enhance cellular uptake. FASL, IFN-γ, RSL3 are released into microenvironment, where FASL derived from cells effectively lyses cells. downregulates expression GPX4 tumor, leading accumulation LPO ROS, promotes The IFN-γ TNF-α stimulates maturation dendritic induces inactivation GPX4, promoting lipid peroxidation, making them sensitive indirectly occurrence ferroptosis. This highlights role hNRV platform enhancing effectiveness synergistic treatment with selective delivery inducers immune activation against glioma without causing additional side effects on healthy organs.

Radiotherapy (RT) is a primary clinical approach for cancer treatment, but its efficacy often hindered by various challenges, especially radiation resistance, which greatly compromises the therapeutic effectiveness of RT. Mitochondria, central to cellular energy metabolism and regulation cell death, play critical role in mechanisms radioresistance. In this context, cuproptosis, novel copper-induced mitochondria-respiratory-dependent death pathway, offers promising avenue radiosensitization. study, an innovative theranostic nanoplatform was designed induce cuproptosis synergy with low-dose therapy (LDRT, i.e., 0.5–2 Gy) treatment situ hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This aims reverse hypoxic tumor microenvironment, promoting shift from glycolysis oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), thereby enhancing sensitivity cuproptosis. Concurrently, Fenton-like reaction ensures sustained supply copper depletion glutathione (GSH), inducing disrupting mitochondrial function, interrupting supply. strategy effectively overcomes radioresistance enhances against tumors. conclusion, study elucidates intricate interactions among hypoxia reversal, metabolic reprogramming, radiosensitization, particularly context treating carcinoma, providing paradigm radiotherapy.

Effective drug delivery relies on the selection of suitable carriers, which is crucial for protein-based therapeutics such as tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL). One key advantages TRAIL its ability to selectively induce apoptosis in cancer cells excluding healthy tissues by binding death receptors DR4 and DR5, are highly expressed various cells. Despite this promise, clinical application has been limited short half-life, stability, inefficient sites. To overcome currently available engineering approaches, a series sophisticated strategies required: (a) design biomaterial-mediated carriers enhanced targeting efficacy, particularly via optimizing selected materials, composition, formulation, surface modulation. Moreover, (b) development genetically modified cellular products augmented secretion toward microenvironments (c) cell techniques immobilization onto infusible populations also discussed present review.
