Immunotherapy, a treatment that uses someone’s own immune system to target and attack cancer cells is the next and best frontier of cancer treatment. CAR-T stands for Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell. It refers to a type of immunotherapy where T-cells are engineered to produce special receptors on their surface that help them target and kill cancer cells. Like all immunotherapy, CAR-T cell therapy harnesses the p

Cancer metastasis is a leading cause of poor prognosis in cancer patients and represents a central challenge in oncology research. The process of metastasis is highly complex and involves multiple steps: local invasion, entry into the circulatory system, dissemination through blood or lymphatic vessels, seeding in distant tissues, and subsequent growth in a new environment.Read more

For our April issue of Research Spotlight, we’re happy to feature 10 recent publications from scientists whom Boster has served.
In one study, to prevent cardiac fibrosis after myocardial infarction (MI), researchers developed a reduced glutathione (GSH)-responsive nanoparticle platform for targeted drug delivery to activated cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) within the infarct area of a post-MI heart, which demonstrated higher therapeutic efficacy and lower systemic toxicity than systemic drug administration.
Another study investigated the osteo-immunomodulatory effects of bicalcium phosphate (BCP) ceramics coupled with micro-vibration stimulation (MVS). Our selected papers also include studies on bacterial outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) for intestinal homeostasis regulation, 3TC for protection against age-related cognitive dysfunction, and several more.
