Cancer vaccines have received tremendous attention in cancer immunotherapy due to their capability to induce a tumor-specific immune response. However, their effectiveness is compromised by the insufficient spatiotemporal delivery of antigens and adjuvants in the subcellular level to induce a robust CD8 T cell response. Herein, a cancer nanovaccine G5-pBA/OVA@Mn is prepared through multiple interactions of manganese ions (Mn), benzoic acid (BA)-modified fifth generation polyamidoamine (G5-PAMAM) dendrimer, and the model protein antigen ovalbumin (OVA). In the nanovaccine, Mn not only exerts a structural function to assist OVA loading as well as its endosomal escape, but works as an adjuvant of stimulator of interferon genes (STING) pathway. These collaboratively facilitate the orchestrated codelivery of OVA antigen and Mn into cell cytoplasm. Vaccination with G5-pBA/OVA@Mn not only shows a prophylactic effect, but also significantly inhibits growth against B16-OVA tumors, indicating its great potential for cancer immunotherapy.

Background: Epigenetic regulation significantly affects immune responses in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). However, the role of RNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification, especially in obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) within LUAD, is not well understood.
Methods: This study examined m6A modification patterns in 973 LUAD patients using 23 regulatory genes.

Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) remains a leading cause of gynecologic cancer mortality, with high rates of recurrence and chemoresistance. Advances in understanding the molecular biology of EOC, particularly BRCA mutations and homologous recombination deficiency (HRD), have led to more targeted therapies. This review provides an updated summary of systemic treatments for EOC, with an emphasis on personalized therapy approaches and emerging therapeutic strategies.

Objectives: To identify immunosuppressive neutrophil subsets in patients with prostate cancer (PCa) and construct a risk prediction model for prognosis and immunotherapy response of the patients based on these neutrophil subsets.
Methods: Single-cell and transcriptome data from PCa patients were collected from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Neutrophil subsets in PCa were identified through unsupervised clustering, and their biological functions and effects on immune regulation were analyzed by functional enrichment, cell interaction, and pseudo-time series analyses.

Locally advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) presents significant therapeutic challenges, particularly in resource-limited settings with restricted access to new therapies. This report describes a new exploratory multimodal therapeutic approach for a patient with locally advanced clear cell RCC (ccRCC) with adrenal and lymph node metastases. A 45-year-old woman presented with an incidentally discovered 9-cm mass in the left kidney, which was later diagnosed as grade-2 ccRCC with adrenal and lymph node involvement.

Since its discovery in the late 18th Century, the role of vaccination in preventing death and disease has expanded across many infectious diseases and cancer. Key to our understanding of vaccine immunogenicity and efficacy is knowledge of the immune system itself. Inborn Errors of Immunity (IEI) represent a heterogeneous group of disorders characterised by impaired function of the immune system.
