Abstract

Synergetic Prostate Cancer Therapies In article number 2207077, Li Zhang, Yunjiao Zhang, Chaozhao Liang, and co-workers propose intratumoral implantation of micromagnets to actively attract intravenously-injected magnetic PEGylated manganese-zinc ferrite nanocrystals (PMZFNs) from blood vessels into tumor tissue. PMZFNs exert relatively durable tumoricidal effects by inducing ferroptotic/immunogenic cell death, eventually achieving synergetic prostate cancer therapy. This study provides a new approach to overcoming the limitations of conventional anti-tumor therapies.
