Traditional immunotherapies mainly focus on αβ T cell-based strategies, which depend on MHC-mediated antigen recognition. However, this approach poses significant challenges in treating recurrent tumors, as immune escape mechanisms are widespread. γδ T cells, with their ability for MHC-independent antigen presentation, offer a promising alternative that could potentially overcome limitations observed in traditional immunotherapies.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFA-site cations in ABX metal halide perovskites do not contribute to the frontier electronic states. They influence optoelectronic properties indirectly through interaction with the BX sublattice. By systematically investigating correlated motions of Cs cations and the PbX lattice (X = Cl, Br, I), we demonstrate that the interaction between the two subsystems depends on electronegativity and size of the X-site anion.

Probiotic therapy has attracted research interest in human infectious and inflammatory disease. As the most prevalent probiotic, the role of in CSOM remains poorly defined.

The treatment also had an acceptable level of safety. Nevertheless, the debate over the efficacy of implementing several treatment plans in competition continues due to the significant expenses involved.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFFibroblast growth factor receptor 4 (FGFR4) has been proven to be a promising target for FGFR-driven HCC therapy. Great efforts have been devoted to the discovery of FGFR4 inhibitors. In this article, a new class of Ponatinib-based N-phenylpyridine-2-amine derivatives was designed and synthesized as covalent and irreversible FGFR4 selective inhibitors through a rational drug design strategy.
