Natural, extracellular membrane vesicles secreted by Gram-negative bacteria, outer (OMVs), contain numerous pathogen-associated molecular patterns which can activate systemic immune responses. Previous studies have shown that OMVs induce strong IFN-γ- and T cell-mediated anti-tumor effects in mice. However, IFN-γ is known to upregulate immunosuppressive factors the tumor microenvironment, especially checkpoint programmed death 1 ligand (PD-L1), may hamper cell function limit...

Recently, therapeutic antibodies against programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) and its ligand (PD-L1) have exerted potent anticancer effect in a variety of tumors. However, blocking the PD-1/PD-L1 axis alone is not sufficient to restore normal immune response. Other negative regulators antitumor immunity, like TGF-β VEGFA, are also involved escape tumor cells induce immunotherapy resistance.We developed novel anti-TGF-β/VEGF bispecific antibody Y332D based on Nano-YBODY™ technology platform. The...
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic joint disease characterized by progressive degeneration of articular cartilage. A challenge in the development disease-modifying drugs effective delivery to chondrocytes. The unique structure promotes rapid clearance through synovial fluid, and dense avascular cartilage extracellular matrix (ECM) limits drug penetration. Here, we show that poly(lactide- co -glycolic acid) nanoparticles coated chondrocyte membranes (CM-NPs) were preferentially taken up rat...

Platinum (Pt)-based chemotherapy is a broadly used therapeutic regimen against various cancers. However, the insufficient cellular uptake, deactivation by thiol-containing species and nonspecific distribution of cisplatin (CDDP) result in its low chemosensitivity as well systemic side effects, which can largely constrain employment CDDP clinical treatment. To circumvent these problems, this study, polymeric nanoparticles were utilized to codeliver water-soluble derivative, poly(γ,l-glutamic...
