Though immunogenic cell death (ICD) has garnered significant attention in the realm of anticancer therapies, effectively stimulating strong immune responses with adequate antigen presentation in deep-seated cancers remains challenging. Herein, to promote antigen presentation, an efficient dual-targeted photodynamic ICD inducer is developed. Due to the enhanced spin-orbit coupling and electron structure modulation, the Cy5-I-CF probe showcases exceptional reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation capacity within cancer cells.

: In this study, we review the diagnostic accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in detecting orbital and intracranial invasion of sinonasal malignancies (SNMs) using histopathological and surgical evidence as the reference standard. : A systematic search of studies in English was conducted in MEDLINE and Embase, limited to articles published since 1990. We included studies using preoperative MRI to detect the intracranial and orbital invasion of SNMs, with histological or surgical confirmation as the reference standard, and reported patient numbers in each class as required to assess diagnostic accuracy.

Histiocytosis are caused by pathogenic myeloid cells, and can be classified as Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) and non-LCH. Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) is a non-LCH, characterized by multi-organ involvement, typical imaging findings, and confirmatory histological studies. A case with multi-organ involvement and histological confirmation is presented.

Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) is an extremely rare non-Langerhans cell disorder that is believed to include both inflammatory and neoplastic characteristics. It is caused due to genetic mutations in proto-oncogenes like BRAF and MEK, while immunological pathways have an essential role in the onset and progression of the disease. Despite its rarity, ECD poses significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges due to its heterogeneous clinical presentation and limited understanding of its underlying pathophysiology.

Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) is a rare, multisystemic, non-Langerhans cell histiocytic neoplasm predominantly affecting middle-aged males in their fifth to seventh decades of life. It often presents with nonspecific symptoms, leading to a delay in its diagnosis. We report a case of an 85-year-old male with multisystemic manifestations, including retroperitoneal, skeletal, vascular, cardiac, orbital, and central nervous system (CNS) involvement.
