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

open access: yesAdvanced 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.

A Biomimetic cRGDyk‐Engineered Platelet Nanoplatform for ACAD11 Delivery to Trigger Pyroptosis in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A biomimetic platelet nanoplatform (OE‐ACAD11@R‐PLT) is developed for targeted hepatocellular carcinoma immunotherapy. By selectively delivering therapeutic plasmids, this system induces mitochondrial dysfunction and triggers robust NLRP3/Caspase‐1/GSDMD‐mediated pyroptosis in tumor cells.
