Tuning the radio with CD47 [PDF]
NCI researchers think they have found a strategy that not only protects healthy tissue during radiation treatment but also enhances antitumor response, most likely by protecting tumor-infiltrating immune cells.

ABSTRACT Sickle cell disease (SCD) affects millions worldwide but has limited treatment options, most of which carry significant side effects. At present, the only curative treatment for SCD is allogeneic or gene‐modified autologous hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation (Tx).

A multivalent bi‐specific nanoerythrosome (mBiNE@tPA) is developed as a “two‐birds‐one‐stone” platform that simultaneously exploits two principal thrombus components. By integrating erythrocyte membrane‐mediated homologous targeting with cRGD‐based active targeting to activated platelets, mBiNE@tPA achieves enhanced thrombus accumulation, triggered ...

Targeting CD47-mediated cancer senescence, a novel strategy for cancer immunotherapy
A transmembrane protein that is extensively expressed, CD47 has an important role in the senescence of cancer cells. Therapy-induced senescence (TIS) by chemotherapy and radiotherapy restrains tumor proliferation yet drives immune evasion and treatment ...

Cancer nanovaccines have emerged as promising alternatives to conventional cancer vaccines, which have shown limited clinical efficacy. In particular, cell membrane nanoparticle‐based nanovaccines can offer high biocompatibility and immunogenicity while preserving tumor antigens, including antigen repertoires.

Shear‐Responsive Red Blood Cell Carriers for Targeted Drug Delivery to Constricted Arteries
Red blood cells are harnessed as mechanoresponsive carriers that exploit the elevated shear stress of stenotic arteries to transiently open membrane pores and release encapsulated therapeutics selectively at sites of arterial narrowing. By coupling vascular hemodynamics with RBC membrane mechanics, a hemodynamically activated platform for localized ...

Background Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) abundantly infiltrate tumors and possess potent antitumor capabilities. “Don‘t eat me” signals like CD47 allow tumors to evade macrophages and proliferate unchecked.

Background Treatments based on the inhibition of pivotal signals of cancer stem cells (CSCs) are on a promising track. Recent studies have shown that targeting CSCs with broader immune‐based therapeutic methods, for example, the anti‐CD47 treatment, may ...
