Abstract Uveal melanoma (UM) is a highly aggressive ocular malignancy associated with poor prognosis and significant resistance to conventional therapies, including surgical resection, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, which are often limited by their efficacy adverse side effects. Energy‐conversion‐based nanodynamic therapy, facilitates the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), has emerged as promising approach for cancer treatment. Here, development high‐performance multifunctional thermoelectric nanocatalysts, specifically Cu 5 FeS 3.6 Se 0.4 nanoparticles, optimized effective synergistic treatment UM reported. These nanoparticles exhibit remarkable photothermal, thermoelectric, chemodynamic properties that enhance therapeutic efficacy. Under near‐infrared light irradiation, generate localized hyperthermia, not only induces direct tumor cell ablation but also produces potentials facilitate ROS generation. Additionally, hyperthermia induced photothermal effects these accelerates Fenton‐like reaction, leading formation hydroxyl radicals therapy. The resultant induce oxidative stress within cells, promoting mechanisms such cuproptosis pyroptosis. integration effects, potentials, therapy single nanoplatform represents an efficient strategy treatment, addressing shortcomings traditional therapies offering means managing this cancer.

Abstract Engineered modifications of nanomaterials inspired by nature hold great promise for disease‐specific imaging and therapies. However, conventional polyethylene glycol modification is limited immune system rejection. The manipulation gold nanorods (Au NRs) modified endogenous proteins (eP@Au) reported as an engineered biomodulator enhanced breast tumor therapy. results show that eP@Au NRs neither activate inflammatory factors in vitro nor elicit rejection responses vivo. Tumor‐specific exhibit a dual‐modal capability trigger mild photothermal effect under near‐infrared light irradiation, enabling highly efficient therapy tumors. Transcriptome sequencing confirmatory experiments reveal the antitumor mainly attributed to repression PI3K‐Akt/MAPK signaling pathways at molecular level. This powerful surprising situ eP‐regulated biomodulation demonstrates advantages convenient fabrication, inert immunogenicity, biocompatibility, providing alternative strategy biomedical

Background Enhancing antigen cross-presentation is essential for the development of a tumor neoantigen vaccine. One approach to stimulate antigen-presenting cells (APCs) uptake neoantigens. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTb) contains pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) recognized by APCs and adhesion molecules that facilitate MTb invasion APCs. Therefore, we suggest using as carrier enhance APC phagocytosis neoantigens, thereby promoting cross-presentation. Methods The successful preparation (phMTb) was confirmed through electron confocal microscopy. Fluorescence microscopy used detect PAMPs on phMTb well observe its role in aiding dendritic (DCs) into endosomes or lysosomes.

Abstract Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) offer promise in breaking through the treatment and survival dilemma of triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC), yet only immunomodulatory subtype ≈5% TNBC patients respond as monotherapy due to lack effector immune cells (internal problem) physical barrier (external limitation) formed by cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs). A hydrogel drug‐delivery platform, ALG@TBP‐2/Pt(0)/nintedanib (ALG@TPN), is designed induce strong functions dual elimination internal external tumor microenvironment (TME). Activated white light, type I II photodynamic therapy (PDT), TBP‐2 generates large amounts reactive oxygen species (ROS) intracellularly, oxidizing mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). The unique catalase activity Pt(0) converts endogenous H 2 O , reducing anoxia‐limiting PDT enhancing ROS generation efficacy. Abundant can oxidize cytotoxic Pt(II), damaging nuclear (nDNA). Dual damage mtDNA nDNA might bi‐directionally activate cGAS/STING pathway enhance cell response. Besides, nintedanib demonstrates a significant inhibitory effect on CAFs, weakening deepening infiltration. Overall, study provides self‐oxygenating with “PDT/chemotherapy/anti‐CAFs” effect, triggering reshape TME. Both interventions increase anti‐TNBC responses.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is notoriously immune-resistant, limiting the clinical efficacy of single-agent immune modulators and thereby necessitating exploration multimodal immunotherapy combinations. Traditional approaches combining conventional checkpoint inhibitors with neoantigen vaccines have shown some promise in treating PDAC but are often compromised by intratumoral T lymphocyte exhaustion systemic toxicity. Hence, novel needed to address these challenges. Herein, we demonstrate that mRNA polymeric nanoparticles encoding anti-PD-1 antibodies situ at tumor site enhance therapeutic neoantigen-based vaccine for PDAC. This mRNA-based, antibody production strategy also protects tumor-infiltrating cells from PD-1 inhibition, potentially reducing toxicities induced inhibition. Our study may provide an innovative dual nanoparticle effective immunotherapy, as well cancer combination therapy other clinically approved drugs (e.g., β-elemene).
