Time‐Controlled Dual Targeting to Program Systemic and Intercellular Transfer of Therapeutic Effects
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Aspirin‐liposomes loaded onto monocytes enable inflammation‐triggered targeting and efficient hand‐over of aspirin to inflamed cells. Monocytes uptake a significant portion of aspirin‐liposomes, prolonging therapeutic action. This approach enhances anti‐inflammatory effects through intercellular transfer, demonstrating a translational strategy for ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study introduces KK2DP7, a dendrimer‐structured peptide adjuvant, as a tool to decode trained immunity's role in antitumor therapy. Splenic CD11b+ cells mediate tumor suppression via TLR2‐IRF7 activation and epigenetic reprogramming, validated by adoptive transfer experiments.
