Revolutionizing Cancer Treatment: A Nano-Platform That Boosts Immune Response

Radiation therapy often fails to trigger the desired immune response due to tumor hypoxia, poor stimulation, and an immunosuppressive environment. Scientists have developed a unique nanoplatform called THUNDER that enhances radiation therapy's effectiveness. This platform stays in the bloodstream lo

A New Light on Fighting Brain Cancer: Combining Drugs and Heat

Brain cancer called glioblastoma is tough to treat. One problem is that the single drugs we use often don't reach the tumor well and the tumor's environment can make these drugs less effective. Scientists are now trying a new approach that involves using light and heat to kill cancer cells. This met
