Immunotherapy has been advanced through multiple approaches, including immunogenic cytokines, monoclonal antibodies, therapeutic vaccinations, adoptive cell transfer, stem cell transplantation, and oncolytic viruses. This review analyses various strategies in genomics, transcriptomics, single-cell techniques, computational analysis, big data, and imaging technologies for the identification of tumour microbiota and microenvironments. Immunotherapy is becoming acknowledged as a feasible cancer treatment method, facilitating innovative cancer medicines and personalized medicine techniques.

Background: Meningiomas are the most common primary intracranial tumor. Somatostatin receptor 2 (SSTR 2) is almost universally expressed in meningioma tissue. For patients who require adjuvant radiation, SSTR based (68)Ga-DOTATATE positron emission tomography (PET) imaging can detect additional or residual disease not discernible on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

The present study reports the synthesis of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)-entrapped polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) nanoconjugates, precisely 5-FU-PVP and 5-FU-PVP-Au, and the evaluation of protein aggregation inhibition efficiency. The 5-FU-loaded polymer nanoconjugates were functionalized with gold nanoparticles and analyzed using characterization techniques like dynamic light scattering, UV-visible spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and zeta potential analysis.

Herein, we report a series of morpholine-anchored fluorescent probes, denoted as SC-nmor (n = 2, 4, 6), designed for facile visualization of protein aggregates. These probes display notable changes in their photophysical properties upon binding with protein aggregates, owing to their high sensitivity to the fibrillar microenvironment.
