Senescent cancer cells are endowed with high immunogenic potential that has been leveraged to elicit antitumor immunity and potentially complement anticancer therapies. However, the efficacy of live senescent cell-based vaccination is limited by interference from immunosuppressive senescence-associated secretory phenotype pro-tumorigenic capacity cells. Here, a nanovaccine strong immunogenicity favorable for immunotherapy reported. The biomimetic integrating cell membrane-coated nanoadjuvant outperforms living in enhancing dendritic (DCs) internalization, improving lymph node targeting, immune responses. In contrast nanovaccines generated death-induced tumor cells, facilitate DC maturation, eliciting superior protection therapeutic outcomes melanoma-challenged mice fewer side effects when combined αPD-1. study suggests versatile biomanufacturing approach maximize minimize adverse advances design immunotherapy.

Abstract Universal protein coatings have recently gained wide interest in medical applications due to their biocompatibility and ease of fabrication. However, the challenge persists activity preservation, significantly complicating functional design these coatings. Herein, an active dual‐protein surface engineering strategy assisted by a facile stepwise protein–protein interactions assembly (SPPIA) method for catheters reduce clot formation infection is proposed. This realized first partial oxidation bovine serum albumin (BSA) lysozyme (LZM) creating stable nucleation platforms via hydrophobic interaction, followed nonoxidized BSA (pI, isoelectric point, ≈4.7) LZM (pI ≈11) through electrostatic interaction owing opposite charge under neutral conditions. The SPPIA effectively preserves conformation functionality both LZM, thus endowing resultant coating with potent antithrombotic bactericidal properties. Furthermore, platform ensures adhesion durability coating, resisting thrombosis bacterial proliferation even after 15 days PBS immersion. Overall, approach not only provides new fabrication but also shows promise technology catheters.

The major bottleneck in using polymer nanovectors for biomedical application, particularly those based on self-immolative poly(amino ester) (PAE), lies their uncontrolled autodegradation at physiological pH before they can reach the intended target. Here, an elegant triblock-copolymer strategy is designed to stabilize unstable PAE chains via zwitterionic interactions under (pH 7.4) and precisely program enzyme-responsive biodegradation specifically within intracellular compartments, ensuring targeted delivery of cargoes. To achieve this goal, biodegradable polycaprolactone (PCL) platform chosen, structure-engineered several di- triblock architectures arrive precise macromolecular geometry. hydrophobic-PCL core hydrophilic anionic-PCL block periphery shield PAEs against autodegradation, thereby stability PBS, FBS, cell culture medium bloodstream. clinical anticancer drug doxorubicin deep-tissue penetrable near-infrared IR-780 biomarker encapsulated study biological actions by vitro live cancer cells vivo bioimaging animals.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common lethal cancers worldwide. Natural killer cells (NK cells) play a key role in liver immunosurveillance, but tumor microenvironment, NK are readily depleted, as evidenced by down-regulation activating receptors, reduced cytokine secretion, and attenuated killing function. The up-regulation inhibitory such PD-1, TIM-3, LAG-3, further exacerbates depletion cells. Combined blockade strategies targeting these immunosuppressive mechanisms, combination PD-1 inhibitors with other pathways (eg. TIM-3 LAG-3), have shown potential to reverse cell exhaustion preclinical studies. This article explores promise innovative HCC immunotherapy, providing new therapeutic directions for optimizing function improving drug sensitivity.
