NIR‐Activatable Domino Cascade Catalysis Nanozyme Reactor for Multi‐Mechanism Synergistic Immunotherapy in Bladder Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents an intravesical delivery strategy of ferroptosis‐ and immunity‐inducing nanozyme‐loaded thermoresponsive hydrogels (FMCC@PNH) for enhanced bladder cancer therapy. Abstract Current intravesical therapies for bladder cancer after resection are limited by poor tissue penetration, off‐target effects, and insufficient efficacy.

MCUB Inhibits PRKN‐Dependent Mitophagic Degradation of PD‐L1 to Promote Immune Evasion in Bladder Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In bladder cancer, the overexpression of MCUB not only reduces mitochondrial calcium influx but also facilitates its binding to PRKN at Arg51, both mechanisms contribute to the impairment of PRKN‐mediated mitophagy. Consequently, the degradation of PD‐L1 is suppressed, leading to its stable expression on the tumor cell surface.

Soft‐Drug‐Inspired MnSTF Nano‐Adjuvant for Safe and Synergistic cGAS–STING Activation in Tumor Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study introduces MnSTF, a soft‐drug‐inspired nanoadjuvant that overcomes the systemic toxicity of STING agonists. Through Mn2+ coordination with an ENPP1 inhibitor, it enables safe cGAS‐STING activation, remodels the tumor immune microenvironment, and synergizes with radiotherapy or vaccines to elicit robust antitumor immunity.
