CTCE decorated p53 mRNA-nanoparticles restore the expression of encoded p53 protein in HCCs, secreting multiple cytokines that modulate immune cells for efficacious cancer treatment. (a) Illustrated are the composition of synthetic CTCE-p53 NPs and the mechanism of CTCE-p53 NPs evoking strong anti-tumor response. (b) A representative TEM image of CTCE-p53 NPs. (c) Immunofluorescence images of p53 knockout RIL-175 cells showed the expression of encoded p53 (scale bar: 50 μm). (d, e) p53 null RIL-175 tumor growth curves (d), and the percentages of tumor infiltrating CD3+CD8+ T cells and M2-like macrophages (e) of mice treated with different formulations as indicated [35].
