Xu et al. analyze patterns in cell-free DNA fragments to detect cancer signals from very low sequencing input across cancer types and clinical settings. The approach supports early detection, treatment monitoring, and post-treatment risk assessment while reducing sequencing demands across assay types.
HIV remains a health issue, with new therapies needed. Cromarty et al. show that HIV tri-specific killer engagers bind to and mediate effective NK cell functions against HIV-infected cells. In rhesus macaques, HIV TriKEs expand and activate the NK cell population, similar to other licensed IL-15-containing agents.
Zhong et al. map the spatiotemporal dynamics of zinc and copper following myocardial infarction. They develop a sequential Zn-Cu therapy, delivered via an epicardial device, that matches physiological needs. This targeted approach enhances cardiac repair and improves ventricular function by regulating the circadian gene PER2.
Shaw et al. investigate how immune modulation by viruses worsens bacterial infection in the middle ear, the most common site of childhood infection. In a pathway distinct from lung co-infections, virus induction of a type I interferon response targets myeloid cells, impairing middle ear neutrophil antibacterial function.
Using the SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine as a model immune challenge, Montamat-Garcia et al. describe how antibody class-switch recombination (CSR) during a primary human response is partially sequential, but with checkpoint at the IGHG2 locus. Moreover, CSR is influenced by the B cell subset and VDJ gene usage.
Pei et al. develop an activable nanoplatform NiS@ALB for co-delivery of Ni2+ and H2S to initiate metalloimmunotherapy and modulate STAT3 signaling-mediated lipid metabolism, which synergistically potentiates the chemosensitivity and immunogenicity of breast cancer. The combination with chemotherapy and αPD-1 elicits potent systemic immune response and suppresses breast tumor progression and metastasis.

Solid tumors develop dense stromal barriers that limit drug delivery and immune attack. Qu et al. engineer MDK-targeted EV carrying a photosensitizer that, upon light activation, simultaneously reprograms the CAFs and immune microenvironment. This dual stromal-immune remodeling markedly enhances the efficacy of immunotherapy and chemotherapy in preclinical models.
Park et al. show that patient-derived glioblastoma organoids faithfully recapitulate parental tumor features and predict clinical responses to temozolomide more accurately than current biomarkers, including MGMT status. This platform reveals heterogeneous resistance mechanisms and enables personalized drug screening, identifying lazertinib as a promising therapeutic option for temozolomide-resistant glioblastoma.

Allen et al. show that a single psilocybin injection administered one year after traumatic brain injury restores behavioral function and normalizes 5-HT2A receptor signaling, while reducing microglial density in the prefrontal cortex in rats, highlighting its potential for patients with chronic TBI symptoms.
Hao et al. develop a non-genetic reprogramming strategy using IFNγ training and Abraxane arming to create meta-neutrophils, which sustain antitumor phenotype and enable potent chemo-immunotherapy against lung metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), overcoming cell source limitations.
