NitraTh epitope-based neoantigen vaccines for effective tumor immunotherapy.

Neoantigen vaccines represent an emerging and promising strategy in the field of tumor immunotherapy. Despite their potential, designing an effective neoantigen vaccine remains a challenge due to the current limitations in predicting CD4 T cell epitopes with high accuracy. Here, we introduce a novel approach to neoantigen vaccine design that does not rely on computational prediction of CD4 T cell epitopes.

Sodium Alginate Hydrogel-Mediated Cancer Immunotherapy for Postoperative Recurrence and Metastasis.

With the development of technology, adjuvant immunotherapy has become a promising strategy for prevention of postoperative tumor regression and metastasis by stimulating the host immune response. However, the therapeutic effects are still unsatisfactory due to the lack of synergy between different methods. In this study, an efficient synergistic immunotherapy system based on injectable sodium alginate hydrogels was designed to inhibit recurrence and metastasis at the same time.

A Logic AND-Gated Sonogene Nanosystem for Precisely Regulating the Apoptosis of Tumor Cells.

To date, many methods have been developed for inducing tumor cell death, such as using chemical drugs and radiation. However, all of them have a common problem, a lack of mechanisms for precisely regulating the death of tumor cells. It often leads to nonspecific death and systemic side effects.
