A novel nano-immunotherapeutic remodels the immune landscape of malignant pleural effusion: Insights into its mechanism of action through single-cell RNA-sequencing.

Clinical evidence indicates that the microenvironment in malignant pleural effusion (MPE) is immunologically cold, which impairs tumour immunosurveillance and antitumor immune response to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB). In a recent issue of Nature Nanotechnology, Liu et al. demonstrate a new nanotechnological approach to effectively mitigate the immune cold MPE and provide insights into its mechanism of action through single-cell RNA-sequencing.
