Coverage details how the researchers added targeting antibodies that bind to TREM2 on immunosuppressive macrophages, ensuring mRNA reaches only tumor-associated cells. The nanoparticles also carried resiquimod to stimulate immune pathways. In mouse models with aggressive breast cancer, three doses reduced immunosuppressive macrophages by 63 percent and increased CXCL9 concentration approximately four times higher than control groups.
“One of the biggest challenges in cancer immunotherapy is that the immune system may be capable of attacking a tumor, but the tumor environment can stop those immune cells from doing their job.”
