Article Synopsis
  • Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy shows promise for treating advanced cancers, but its effectiveness is often limited due to low response rates.
  • Researchers developed a nanoparticle called TPM1 that specifically targets and binds to PD-L1 on tumor cell surfaces, altering its structure to enhance PD-L1 aggregation.
  • In tests with mice, TPM1 demonstrated prolonged retention in tumors and improved anti-cancer effects by activating CD8 T cells, suggesting it could boost the efficacy of ICB therapy.

MicroRNAs have been shown to play a critical role in lung inflammatory diseases. Here, we report that knocking out miR-144/451 in mice exacerbates lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced lung inflammation. The lung inflammation in mice was induced by intratracheal instillation of LPS.

Allergic asthma remains an important worldwide health issue. Animal models are valuable for understanding the pathophysiological mechanisms of asthma and the development of effective therapeutics. This study aims to develop an alternative murine model induced by shrimp tropomyosin (ST) instead of ovalbumin (OVA).
