Deskripsi

Nitric oxide exerts a multitude of physiological functions and has also been exploited for anticancer therapies. Here the authors report the design of a micelle-releasing thermosensitive hydrogel system for the concomitant locoregional and lymphatic delivery of a nitric oxide donor and an anti-CTLA4 antibody, showing anti-tumor immune responses in preclinical cancer models.
