Bispecific Antibody Targeting VEGF/TGF‐β Synergizes with Local Radiotherapy: Turning Tumors from Cold to Inflamed and Amplifying Abscopal Effects

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Y332D, a bispecific antibody that simultaneously blockades VEGF and TGF‐β, counteracted negative RT effects that are attributed to the upregulation of TGF‐β and VEGF, as well as further enhanced the immunostimulatory effects of RT, thereby reprograming the TME from immune “cold” to inflamed state and forming an effective in‐situ vaccine that eradicate ...

SLC19A1 transports immunoreactive cyclic dinucleotides. [PDF]

, 2019
The accumulation of DNA in the cytosol serves as a key immunostimulatory signal associated with infections, cancer and genomic damage1,2. Cytosolic DNA triggers immune responses by activating the cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)-stimulator of interferon ...

Radiation Exposure Induced Blood–Brain Barrier Injury via Mitochondria‐Mediated Sterile Inflammation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work describes a blood–brain barrier (BBB) microphysiological system (MPS) to explore the responses of BBB to radiation exposure. Following radiation exposure, obvious BBB comprise and brain endothelial injuries are detected. Mechanism study shows radiation induced significant sterile inflammation via mitochondrial dysfunction and cGAS‐STING ...

Self‐Propelled In Situ Polymerized Nanoparticles Activating the STING Pathway for Enhanced Bladder Cancer Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A self‐propelled nanomedicine delivery system forms DMCU nanoparticles in the bladder via in situ polymerization of dopamine hydrochloride, Mn2+, cGAMP, and urease. The urease‐driven propulsion enhances retention and drug delivery. These nanoparticles activate the STING pathway, stimulating dendritic cells and T cells to boost anti‐bladder cancer ...

Fragment Autoantigens Stimulated T‐Cell‐Immunotherapy (FAST) as a Fast Autologous Cancer Vaccine

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A personalized whole tumor cell vaccine (FAST) is developed to address immunosuppressive tumor microenvironments and genomic instability‐driven heterogeneity. Irradiation and cryoablation‐treated tumor cells generate fragmented antigens (FAs) that activate broad‐spectrum antigen presentation via upregulated immunogenic cell death, MHC‐I, and damage ...

A Dual‐Targeting T6SS DNase Drives Bacterial Antagonism and Eukaryotic Apoptosis via the cGAS‐STING‐TNF Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The bacterial Type VI secretion system (T6SS) emerges as a sophisticated virulence mechanism, leveraging the dual‐function effector TkeA from Yersinia pseudotuberculosis. TkeA concurrently damages rival bacteria and host cell DNA, triggering the host's cGAS‐STING‐TNF pathway and inducing apoptosis.

Cryo‐Inactivated Cancer Cells Derived Magnetic Micromotors for Tumor Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cryo‐inactivated cancer cell‐based magnetic micromotors are developed for synergistic tumor immunotherapy via magnetic targeting. These micromotors can induce ferroptosis and immunogenic cell death, deliver tumor antigens, and activate the Mn2+‐dependent cGAS‐STING pathway. The system effectively suppresses tumor progression, recurrence, and metastasis,

Agonists and Inhibitors of the cGAS-STING Pathway

Molecules
The cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)-stimulator of interferon genes (STING) pathway is pivotal in immunotherapy. Several agonists and inhibitors of the cGAS-STING pathway have been developed and evaluated for the treatment of various diseases. The agonists aim to activate STING, with cyclic dinucleotides (CDNs) being the most common, while the inhibitors

Astrocytic ET‐1 System Determines Microglia Phenotype Following Spinal Cord Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The study reveals that astrocytic ET‐1 system is solely activated by thrombin following SCI via RhoA/NF‐κB and MAPKs/NF‐κB signal pathway. The release of astrocytic ET‐1 drives microglia polarization toward M1 phenotype through YAP signaling via ETA and ETB receptors.

Solving the Amyloid Paradox: Unveiling the Complex Pathogenicity of Amyloid Fibrils

Aggregate, EarlyView.
This review addresses the gap between strong evidence for the involvement of amyloid fibrils in neurodegeneration and the failure of anti‐amyloid therapies, a phenomenon herein termed the “amyloid paradox.” To address this paradox, we provide a comprehensive summary of the current understanding of fibrils' pathogenic properties and mechanisms ...
