Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Samir A Mendonca"
- Samir A Mendonca's research primarily focuses on the use of adenoviral vectors for targeted gene therapy and immunotherapy applications, exploring their effectiveness in various cancer types and infectious diseases.
- Recent findings highlight the potential of these vectors in promoting immune responses, oncolysis, and the sensitization of tumor cells to treatment, particularly through combinations of gene transfer (such as p14 and interferon-β) and synergistic approaches with chemotherapy.
- Mendonca's work elucidates the mechanisms behind immune evasion in tumors and emphasizes the importance of engineered vectors for effective treatment delivery, paving the way for innovative therapeutic strategies against both cancer and infectious diseases like COVID-19.
