Abstract Limited advancements in managing malignant brain tumors have resulted poor prognoses for glioblastoma (GBM) patients. Standard treatment involves surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, which lack specificity damage healthy tissue. Boron-containing compounds, such as boric acid (BA), exhibit diverse biological effects, including anticancer properties. This study aimed to examine whether boron supplementation, BA, can inhibit growth a xenograft animal model. Using MRI-based tumor size measurement, survival rates, hematological, clinical biochemistry analyses, genotoxicity parameters, we assessed the impact of BA. Histopathological, immunohistochemical, immunofluorescence examinations were also conducted. All BA doses (3.25, 6.5, 13 mg kg −1 b.w.) extended compared GBM controls after 14 days, with dose-dependent anti-GBM effect observed MRI analyses. improved hematological (WBC PLT counts) biochemical parameters (LDL-C, CREA, ALP). Histopathological examination revealed significant reduction diameter 6.5 Immunohistochemical staining showed modulation intracytoplasmic Ki67, cytoplasmic CMPK2, GFAP expressions cells post-BA treatment.

Immunotherapy has transformed the landscape of cancer treatment, with T cell-based strategies at forefront this revolution. However, durability these responses is frequently undermined by two intertwined phenomena: cell exhaustion and senescence. While driven chronic antigen exposure in immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, leading to a reversible state diminished functionality, senescence reflects more permanent, age- or stress-induced arrest cellular proliferation effector capacity. Together, processes represent formidable barriers sustained anti-tumor immunity. In review, we dissect molecular underpinnings senescence, revealing how dysfunctions synergistically contribute immune evasion resistance across range solid tumors. We explore cutting-edge therapeutic approaches aimed rewiring exhausted senescent phenotypes. These include advances checkpoint blockade, engineering "armored" CAR-T cells, senolytic therapies that selectively eliminate novel interventions reinvigorate system's capacity for eradication. By spotlighting emerging target both provide forward-looking perspective on potential harness rejuvenation. This comprehensive review outlines next frontier immunotherapy: unlocking durable overcoming intrinsic aging exhaustion, ultimately paving way transformative breakthroughs.
