Abstracts Herein, we present human adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) inserted with the receptor-interacting protein kinase-3 (RIP3) gene (RP@ADSCs), which induces cell necroptosis, for tumor immunotherapy. Necroptosis has characteristics of both apoptosis, such as programmed cell death, and necrosis, such as swelling and plasma membrane rupture, during which damage-related molecular patterns are released, triggering an immune response.

Here, we present a novel approach to improve the efficacy of antibody-drug conjugates (ADC) by integrating antibody-mediated immunotherapy and photodynamic therapy (PDT) in a combination therapy system utilizing an antibody-photosensitizer conjugate (APC) platform based on a poloxamer polymer linker.

Here, we describe the absorption pathways of nanoparticles whose surface is modified with bile acid and present environmental factors that influence oral bioavailability (BA) from the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). The approach utilized 100 nm sized fluorescence-labeled, carboxylated polystyrene nanoparticles (CPN) conjugated with glycocholic acid (G/CPN) to exclude potential artifacts, if existing, and instability issues in evaluating the transit of G/CPN in the GIT and measuring BA.
