Abstract
Phagocytosis upregulation plays a crucial role in bridging to adaptive immunity for cancer immunotherapy. However, current approaches to modulating phagocytosis are beneficial to certain types of cancer only. In this Forum paper, we will highlight how nanoengineering can overcome the current limitation of phagocytosis-mediated cancer immunotherapy.
