Abstract

Oxygen-Generating Cryogels In article number 2102234, Sidi A. Bencherif and co-workers use injectable oxygen-generating cryogels (O2-cryogels) as a strategy to boost antitumor immune responses. These noninvasive biomaterials are designed to controllably release oxygen, reverse hypoxia-driven immunosuppression, and promote the infiltration of pre-existing immune-fighting immune cells into tumors. O2-cryogels are a novel platform to deliver oxygen locally as a coadjuvant, reinforce tumor-infiltrating T cells, and ultimately enhance cancer immunotherapies.
