Irradiated Liver Cancer Cell Vaccine Transfected With GM‐CSF Induces Specific and Long‐Lasting Anti‐tumour Immunity Through the Synergistic Effect of Oxidised mtDNA and GM‐CSF

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Song et al. developed an mGM‐CSF‐loaded, liver cancer cell‐based vaccine that potently activated dendritic cells and elicited tumour‐specific T cell responses. Mechanistically, radiation‐induced oxidative damage to mitochondrial DNA in cancer cells triggers the cGAS‐STING pathway in DCs, which synergizes with mGM‐CSF‐driven JAK2‐STAT3 signalling to ...
