Targeted Expansion of Treg Cells to Induce Immune Tolerance after Kidney Transplantation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A dual‐targeting nanoparticle platform that selectively engages graft stromal cells via CD248 receptors while employing kidney‐ specific promoters (NPHS2) to drive localized IL‐ 2/TGF‐βexpression is developed. This approach achieves three therapeutic objectives:1) intragraft Treg polarization without systemic cytokine exposure;2) reduced dependence on ...

Three‐Year Follow‐Up of Neoadjuvant Tislelizumab with Chemotherapy in Locally Advanced Gastric and Gastroesophageal Junction Adenocarcinoma: Revealing Cancer‐Associated Fibroblast Heterogeneity Corresponding to PD‐1 Blockade Efficacy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Heterogeneous cancer‐associated fibroblasts orchestrate dual immune microenvironments in LAGC. Abstract The potential for immunotherapy in patients with locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC) is recently confirmed. To report the 3‐year follow‐up data are aimed from a novel clinical trial. This is a prospective single‐arm phase II trial.
