In-Tumor Therapy Transforms Local Macrophages Into Cancer-Killing Agents

TL;DR Summary
KAIST researchers inject lipid nanoparticles carrying CAR mRNA and immunostimulants directly into tumors to reprogram resident tumor-associated macrophages into anticancer CAR-macrophages, boosting local and potentially systemic anti-tumor immunity and showing strong tumor suppression in animal models.
