๐ฌ Hidden Immune Backup System Could Supercharge mRNA Cancer Vaccines
Researchers at Washington University found that mRNA cancer vaccines activate tumor-fighting immune responses through a pathway scientists did not know existed. Even when the immune cell previously thought essential was absent, the vaccine still worked โ via a cross-dressing mechanism where a different cell type borrows protein fragments from neighbors. The finding, published in Nature, may explain why some cancer patients respond brilliantly to experimental vaccines while others do not. What could this mean for personalized cancer treatment?
