Bimetallic Ca/Zn Nanoagonist Remould the Immunosuppressive Hepatocellular Carcinoma Microenvironment Following Incomplete Microwave Ablation via Pyroptosis and the STING Signaling Pathway

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The multifunctional bimetallic Ca/Zn nanoagonist (PZH/Zn@CaNA) significantly downregulated the JAK2‐STAT3 signaling pathway, which effectively inhibited the proliferation and growth of HCC with incomplete microwave ablation. Furthermore, the released bimetallic ions (Ca2⁺ and Zn2⁺) synergistically enhanced oxidative stress‐mediated cytotoxicity ...
