Outcomes following long-term disease control with immune checkpoint inhibitors in patients with advanced melanoma.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) can achieve durable responses in patients with advanced melanoma, and results from clinical trials suggest cure may be possible for a subset of patients. Despite clinical trial data, little is known about the risk, character, and clinical outcome of late recurrences after ICI. This study aimed to explore the disease outcomes and survival in a cohort of patients with long-term responses to ICI.

Right coronary sinus aneurysm repair.

In this case report, we describe the surgical treatment of a right coronary sinus aneurysm. A 69-year-old male patient was screened because of palpitations. He was finally diagnosed with an aneurysm of the sinus of Valsalva of the right coronary cusp.

Combination of STING agonist with anti-vascular RGD-(KLAKLAK) peptide as a novel anti-tumor therapy.

Immunotherapy is one of the most promising anti-cancer treatment. It involves activating the host's own immune system to eliminate cancer cells. Activation of cGAS-STING pathway is promising therapeutic approach for cancer immunotherapy.

Facile Synthesis of Self-Supported Solid Amine Sorbents for Direct Air Capture.

Conventional usage of tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA) via being supported on porous solid materials for carbon capture is susceptible to oxidative degradation during regeneration cycles. This study reports a novel method to synthesize a TEPA based solid polymer for efficient CO removal via direct air capture (DAC). The polymer was obtained through epoxy-amine crosslinking reaction, leading to the transformation of liquid TEPA to a self-supported solid polymer.
