Impressive clinical benefit is seen in clinic with PD-1 inhibitors on portion of cancer patients. Yet, there remains an urgent need to develop effective synergizers to expand their clinical application. Tumor-associated macrophage (TAM), a type of M2-polarized macrophage, eliminates or suppresses T-cell-mediated anti-tumor responses.

Article Synopsis
  • A new method using organocatalysts for a specific chemical reaction involving ortho-hydroxyphenyl-substituted p-QMs and α-nitroketones has been developed.
  • The process results in the creation of unique chiral compounds, specifically 2-(1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethyl)phenols, with impressive yields and enantioselectivities.
  • The technique is efficient enough to be scaled up for larger experiments, demonstrating its practical application.
