Glioblastoma is the most common and highly malignant brain tumor in adults. New targeted therapeutic approaches are imperative. EGFRvIII has appealing targets using monoclonal antibodies. Thus, endeavors toward developing new mAbs therapies for GBM capable of targeting biomarker must prevail to improve patient’s prognosis. Here, we isolated characterized an anti-EGFRvIII vNAR from a non-immune freshwater stingray mixed library, termed R426. The R426 pEGFRvIII interaction was demonstrated by molecular docking dynamics, recognition vitro further confirmed cell immunofluorescence staining.

Glioblastoma is most commonly a primary brain tumor and the utmost malignant one, with survival rate of approximately 12–18 months. highly heterogeneous, demonstrating that different types cells from same can manifest distinct gene expression patterns biological behaviors. Conventional therapies such as temozolomide, radiation, surgery have limitations. As now, there no cure for glioblastoma. Alternative treatment methods to eradicate glioblastoma are discussed in this review, including targeted PI3K, NFKβ, JAK-STAT, CK2, WNT, NOTCH, Hedgehog, TGFβ pathways. The novel application oncolytic viruses nanomaterials combating also discussed. Despite scores clinical trials glioblastoma, prognosis remains poor. Progress breaching blood–brain barrier avenues combination treatments hold promise future development efficacious therapies.

Abstract Glioblastoma (GBM), the most malignant brain tumor with high prevalence, remains highly resistant to existing immunotherapies due significant immunosuppression within microenvironment (TME), predominantly manipulated by M2‐phenotypic tumor‐associated macrophages (M2‐TAMs). Here in this work, an M2‐TAMs targeted nano‐reprogrammers, MG5‐S‐IMDQ, is established decorating mannose molecule as targeting moiety well toll‐like receptor (TLR) 7/8 agonist, imidazoquinoline (IMDQ) on dendrimeric nanoscaffold. MG5‐S‐IMDQ demonstrated excellent capacity of penetrating blood‐brain barrier (BBB) selectively GBM microenvironment, leading a phenotype transformation and function restoration TAMs shown heightened phagocytic activity toward cells, enhanced cytotoxic effects, improved antigen cross‐presentation capability. In meantime, induction function‐oriented “gear effect”, treatment extended its impact systemically enhancing infiltration type I conventional dendritic cells (cDC1s) into sites bolstering adaptive immune responses. sum, precisely working unique target situ, nano‐reprogrammers successfully robust network that worked synergistically combat tumors. This facile nanoplatform‐based immunomodulatory strategy, serving powerful convenient monotherapy or complementary alongside other therapies like surgery, provided deep insights for advancing translational study GBM.
