Cell membrane-encased thylakoid as white light triggered PDT therapy for facile and targeted choroidal melanoma treatment. (PubMed, Bioact Mater)
Furthermore, the anti-tumor effect of CM-Thy was validated through various mechanisms involved in tumor formation such as angiogenesis and vasculogenic mimicry. Interestingly, the results from visible light experiments conducted in vitro also substantiated the remarkable therapeutic efficacy of this system for refractive eye disorders while providing innovative ideas for cross-species biological interventions.

Orelabrutinib and rituximab regimen combined with intravitreal methotrexate for treatment of primary vitreoretinal lymphoma: a case report and literature review. (PubMed, Front Oncol)
Although agents such as lenalidomide and Bruton's tyrosine kinase(BTK) inhibitors have demonstrated efficacy in relapsed/refractory (R/R)PVRL, their role in treatment-naïve patients remains unclear. In conclusion, the combination of Orelabrutinib, rituximab, and intravitreal MTX is a feasible therapeutic strategy for PVRL. Our findings may contribute to a potential paradigm shift in the management of this rare disease.

Targeting the cGAS-STING pathway in ophthalmology: from innate immunity to therapeutic innovation. (PubMed, Exp Eye Res)
Additionally, we discuss its interactions with autophagy, cellular senescence, and cell death, exploring its potential as a therapeutic target in inflammatory and neoplastic eye conditions. Finally, we identify key unresolved questions and outline future research directions aimed at exploiting cGAS-STING modulation for precision therapies in vision-threatening diseases.

Retinal Transcriptomic Signatures in Sudden Acquired Retinal Degeneration Syndrome (SARDS) and Cancer-Associated Retinopathy (CAR). (PubMed, Animals (Basel))
SARDS and CAR share immune-related molecular signatures but potentially differ in secondary mechanisms-vascular inflammation and endothelial activation in SARDS versus paraneoplastic mimicry in CAR. These data provide potential insight into the pathogenesis of SARDS as well as CAR, and identify potential diagnostic and therapeutic targets.

LNP-Delivered CAR-mRNA Enables in Vivo CAR-Macrophage Production for TYRP1-Targeted Therapy of Choroidal Melanoma. (PubMed, Curr Eye Res)
No systemic toxicity was observed in hematological, biochemical, or histological analyses. We demonstrate that macrophage-targeted MPLA-LNP delivery of TYRP1-CAR mRNA in a murine choroidal melanoma model reprograms tumor-associated macrophages toward an M1 phenotype, suppresses tumor growth, and prolongs survival through combined antigen-specific targeting and microenvironment remodeling.

Pro-Tumorigenic Signaling Between Small Extracellular Vesicles of Cancer Cells and Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells-An In Vitro Study. (PubMed, Int J Mol Sci)
Both the BM-MSCs and tumor cells exhibited altered secretory profiles after sEV treatment. The in vitro findings provide cumulative evidence that sEV-mediated interactions contribute to a tumor-supportive milieu or premetastatic niche at the BM in Rb.
