Synergistic Remodeling of Tumor Immune Microenvironment via a DNA Nanodevice Integrating STING Activation and Lysosome‐Targeted PD‐L1 Degradation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A rational design DNA nanoplatform not only achieves efficient PD‐L1 degradation but also triggers robust STING signaling. The nanodevice effectively reprograms “cold” tumors, leading to potent inhibition of tumor growth and metastasis in vivo. ABSTRACT The cGAS‐STING pathway is a cornerstone of innate antitumor immunity; however, its therapeutic ...
