Background: In cancer immunotherapy, gene therapy has become a promising strategy through the introduction of immunostimulatory components into its formulation. However, ideal non-viral delivery platforms capable simultaneously maintaining high efficiency and immune activation are still in demand. As an intestinal probiotic, Lactobacillus reuteri potential correlation with progression. Its unique antigenicity also confers immunomodulatory activity. Method: We engineered new siRNA system,...

Metastasis is one of the hallmarks cancer malignancy that usually causes more detrimental effects than a primary tumor. Many microRNAs were reported to be involved in process tumor metastasis. Hep11 and Hep12 cells derived from recurrence (intrahepatic metastatic) sites hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), respectively. exhibited higher invasive migratory potential Hep11. There was also significantly expression miR‐9 cells. Further studies HCC cell lines demonstrated could promote migration...

Background Programmed cell death protein-1/programmed ligand-1 (PD-1/PD-L1) inhibitors works by reactivating immune cells. Considering the accessibility of noninvasive liquid biopsies, it is advisable to employ peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets predict immunotherapy outcomes. Methods We retrospectively enrolled 87 patients with available baseline circulating subset data who received first-line PD-1/PD-L1 at Peking Union Medical College Hospital between May 2018 and April 2022.

Acute lung injury (ALI) and its severe form, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), induce high morbidity mortality rates, which challenge the present approaches for treatment of ALI/ARDS. The clinically used photosensitizer verteporfin (VER) exhibits great potential in (ALI/ARDS) by regulating macrophage polarization reducing inflammation. Nevertheless, hydrophobic characteristics, nonspecificity, constrained bioavailability hinder therapeutic efficacy. In this work, we developed a...
