Pyroptosis, an excellent form of immunogenic cell death that can effectively activate antitumor immune responses, is attracting considerable interest as a promising approach for cancer immunotherapy. Immunogenic pyroptosis can recruit and stimulate dendritic cells to provoke further activation and tumor infiltration of T cells by releasing danger-associated molecular patterns, thus improving the tumor response to PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint blockade immunotherapy. Here, we report the discovery of a bifunctional photosensitizer Nile Violet that can simultaneously trigger caspase-3/GSDME-mediated immunogenic pyroptosis and PD-L1 downregulation for cancer photoimmunotherapy.

Its biopsychosocial conceptualization incorporates psychodynamic as well as behavioral and systemic considerations. At the same time, there is also extensive biological knowledge of the neuroendocrine-immune control of barrier and immune function, characterized through animal experiments and translational clinical studies.

Improvements to eating disorder (ED) care are urgently needed in the United Kingdom (UK) and around the world. Informed by my lived experiences, independent research, and involvement in the underappreciated field of quality improvement (QI), I have written this article to offer ideas on how to improve individuals' access to and experiences of ED care. As I live in the UK, my lived and QI experiences are of the UK's National Health Service (NHS).
