A nanobody-enzyme fusion protein targeting PD-L1 and sialic acid exerts anti-tumor effects by affecting tumor associated macrophages
2024-06-09
Abstract excerpt
Cancer cells employ various mechanisms to evade immune surveillance. Their surface features, including a protective “sugar coat” and immune checkpoints like PD-L1 (programmed death ligand 1), can impede immune cell recognition. Sialic acids, which carry negative charges, may hinder cell contact through electrostatic repulsion, while PD-L1 transmits immunosuppressive signals to T cells. Furthermore, cancer cells ma...
