Bimetallic Peroxide Nanocomposites‐Driven Redox Dyshomeostasis to Activate Sequential Cuproptosis and Pyroptosis for Amplified Tumor Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Hyaluronic acid‐modified bimetallic peroxide nanocomposites (MgO2‐CuO2@HA) are designed for synergistic tumor therapy. The nanocomposites release Mg2+, H2O2, and Cu2+ in tumor cells, induce cuproptosis via Cu+‐mediated protein aggregation, and activate pyroptosis through caspase‐1/gasdermin D pathways for inducing immunogenic cell death, collectively ...

NAD+‐Dependent Enzyme SIRT3 Limits Intestinal Epithelial Cell Functions Through NAD+ Synthesis Pathway in Colorectal Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Microbiota‐derived quinolinic acid is used as an alternative source of replenishing the intracellular NAD+ pool induced by SIRT3 deficiency to regulate intestinal epithelial cell and T cell function, which has implications for targeting intestinal epithelial cells as an approach to the treatment of immune‐associated diseases, including colorectal ...

TriCON: A Carbon‐Based Triple‐Modal Nanoplatform for Pancreatic Cancer Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We developed TriCON, a triple‐modality nanotherapeutic platform, to treat pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) by synergizing gene editing, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy. TriCON utilizes CRISPR/Cas9 to target the poliovirus receptor (PVR), combined with nano‐encapsulated doxorubicin and checkpoint blockade. This approach achieved significant tumor
