NewsTherapeutic vaccination against HPV-related tumors: Nanoparticles make the difference
Researchers have developed a therapeutic vaccination concept that can mobilize the immune system to target cancer cells. Virus peptides coupled to silica nanoparticles can elicit effective T-cell responses against HPV-related tumors. In a mouse model, the nanoparticle-based vaccine was able to partially or completely suppress HPV-related tumors.
