Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor as a Fifth Component of Lipid Nanoparticles Enables Lymph Node‐Targeting and Augments mRNA Vaccine Efficacy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Here, a PDL1 inhibitor is employed as a fifth component to modify lipid nanoparticles (LNPs). PDL1 inhibitor‐loaded LNPs show enhanced lymph node targeting, resulting in greater lymph node expansion, immune cell infiltration, and improved mRNA vaccine efficacy. This fifth component LNP could be a novel platform for mRNA vaccines.

MicroRNAs secreted by the parasitic nematode Brugia malayi disrupt lymphatic endothelial cell integrity.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases
Lymphatic filariasis (LF) is a neglected tropical disease affecting over 51 million people in 72 endemic countries. Causative agents of LF are mosquito-borne parasitic nematodes Wuchereria bancrofti, Brugia malayi, and Brugia timori.

A Robust Bio‐Supportive Hydrogel Patch for Full‐Thickness Repair of Gastroesophageal Defects

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Gastroesophageal defect repair remains a formidable clinical challenge plagued by high leakage and life‐threatening complications. We develop a double‐disc, highly crystalline PVA‐based RBS hydrogel patch featuring suture‐free sealing, robust acid/enzyme resistance and mechanical durability.

Versatile Microgel Platform for Intervertebral Disc Degeneration Therapy: Targeting Pericyte‐Mediated Fibrosis and Protecting Nucleus Pulposus Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The engineered MMS@TRP microgel enables targeted, acid‐responsive delivery of a miR‐21 inhibitor to pericytes. It effectively suppresses disc fibrosis by inhibiting TGF‐β signaling while protecting nucleus pulposus cells via sustained, antioxidant tannic acid release.

Prox1 is a marker of ectodermal placodes, endodermal compartments, lymphatic endothelium and lymphangioblasts

, 2001
The lymphatic endothelium has mostly been thought to be derived by sprouting from specialized veins. Recently it has been shown that mice deficient for the homeobox transcription factor Prox1 are practically devoid of lymphatics.

Optimizing Cancer Vaccinations Using a Physiologically‐Based Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic (PBPK/PD) Model

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Where and when should a cancer vaccine be administered? A whole‐body PBPK model demonstrates that systemic immune transport critically determines vaccination efficacy. By simulating how organ‐specific immune interactions influence treatment response, the study provides a quantitative framework for optimizing cancer vaccination strategies.
